If you enjoy the kinds of music he plays (as I do), anything by Toby Walker is excellent. He has multiple YouTube videos, and a website:

John Knowles published the "Fingerstyle Quarterly" and sells issues still. I really like his arrangement of "Vincent" (Starry, Starry Night) in issue #7. You can listen to a clip here:
http://www.johnknowles.com/archives01.htm (go to issue 7 and click on the "Vincent" text.) or a full performance on youTube: https://youtu.be/5EuFkL1hyBo?t=66 It's a very playable arrangement. And of course, the newsletter has a lot of fine arrangements; you can hear clips from his website page. |

Regarding the John Knowles version of Vincent:
Is the lesson / tabs included if you purchase the old issue?
