Big Mon
Big Mon is a well known bluegrass standard composed by the father of bluegrass, Bill Monroe. This tune moves between the one and flat seven chord repetitively, so get used to moving between the scales of A and G major. Also, keep an ear out for the lessor-known C part, so you can break it out when needed!
