I discovered Jethro after seeing his name mentioned several times on Mandolin Cafe. Then I discovered what for me are his very best recordings:
Two CDs with Don Stiernberg (also a fabulous jazz mandolinist) backing Jethro up on guitar: Swing Low Sweet Mandolin in 1995 and Bye Bye Blues in 1997).
They are really fabulous.
Some of his simpler tunes are transcribed at the Mandozine site, and David Grisman's site had some of the more complicated ones written out on his site many years back.
