Great book. You might find that checking a web site for hammered dulcimer, mountain dulcimer, clawhammer banjo music will have a lot of "old timey" tunes you can adapt to the whistle.Steven wrote:Get a copy of The Fiddler's Fakebook. It's got hundreds of tunes from lots of genres, and lots of them are whistle friendly.

Here is another site you might check out:
http://www.traditionalmusic.co.uk/
There is a bluegrass and an old timey section right near the top of the page.
