Topic: Today.

I came in and the top post was from Old Doll, posted "Yesterday" and there were no responses yet.  I have nothing of merit to say, but I didn't want today to feel forlorn and unproductive.

Re: Today.

Ha ha!  Yes, I think we were all busy playing guitar (and eating).

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: Today.

Wilbaye,

Would you consider this song by Mary Gaulthier.[ Goshay ]

The last of the hobo kings. I really like this artist, ive been to see her live.
This does not do her or this song justice i feel.  Its a great song with great lyrics.
i do feel you would make a fine cover of this song.

Re: Today.

Lena,

I will listen to it at least a 1,000 times and then I will give it my best shot. I am also working on another that I would like your opinion I will post them when i have them done and let you know.
Seems I have to get them burned into my memory banks so I can play them without thinking about it while playing.

Re: Today.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe it is  a   E  BM   A progression throughtout   except  where it goes

(Bm) The Last of the Hobo (E) Kings    (Bm) The Last of the Hobo (E) Kings.

I couldn't find tabs  so I will give this a try smile   

I don't play a lot of songs in the key of E and was taken at what a beautiful chord this is fingerpicked !
