In this lesson, you’ll learn the reel “Anything for John Joe.” It’s what is often called a “half reel” or “single reel,” meaning there are only 16 measures in the whole tune. Marla starts by playing “Anything for John Joe” through a couple times and then takes it apart slowly, phrase by phrase.

The second tune in the Peacock’s Feather Set is in the key of D major, and its bright happy sound is a nice contrast to the D Dorian sound of the first “Peacock’s Feather” in the set. Marla walks you through the melody of both parts in this video.
