The Mystery, Tommy Emmanuel's sixth US album, was inspired by Emmanuel's travels; each of the album's compositions is a musical snapshot or sojourn - a journey that brings us together with places and people - a journey into self discovery. This transcription book shows all twelve tunes on the CD note-for-note in standard notation and tablature. Also included are detailed performance notes of each tune.
