Hello folks.
I've been a constant reader of this newsgroup, but never contributed
anything so far. So, I decided to take some time and type up some tab
stuff during my work. ;^) Following is a blues tune called "Backwater
Blues" that I happened to find in a magazine called "Accoustic Guitar
yesterday at a nearby CD shop. It wasn't so hard and fun to play.
Since tab form can't express time interval, I hope you will figure
that out by feeling. Once you get used to the progression, you can
also enjoy improvising your own style too.
Backwater Blues (Words, Music by Bessie Smith)
