Hi all. Among other things, I'm the owner of Barcroft Books, which just published On Banjo by Ben Eldridge. Next up is a songbook by Tim O'Brien. It will be about 100 pages and include chapters on songwriting craft, singing and 40 of Tim's favorite songs, including notation and lyrics to Walk the Way the Wind Blows, Brother Wind, and Nellie Kane. The selections will also have insights from Tim about what inspired the song and how it came about. It will be spiral bound for ease of use. In the spirit of market research, what would you be willing pay for this book? For comparison, Ben's book is $39.95.
I don't buy music books but I love Tim. I was gifted a Hartford book of all the fiddle tunes he loved but I can't read music but it's a cool book to have. $40 seems reasonable. Anymore than that, hmmm?
