New Tab...help appreciated..lol
Posted: Thu Apr 26, 2012 6:00 am
This is a tune I wrote in 2007 and pretty much marks the spot where my arthritis forced me to simplify a lot of fingerings and pare things down to the bare necessities. lol.. It's really been a blessing in disguise since it's forced me to do some things more intelligently than I had before (that's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!). You might notice that there are only a few instances where more than two notes are played at once, but it still has plenty of movement (I hope).
I always cringe when introducing a tab because I'm not a 'reader' and I'm sure the notation frame in Tabledit would make someone who does know their stuff cringe even worse than I do. lol But I just look at the tab frames anyway and do my best to make it sound like it is supposed to. Maybe a different time sig would make more sense, but that stuff baffles me. Any help refining things is always appreciated, so don't hesitate to straighten me out. heheh
Anyway...I wrote this for my great niece, Anna Claire's, 5th birthday. She was (and is still) cute as she could be and looked very much like Shirley Temple at the time. So I envisioned her dancing a softshoe like in the old movies and it led me to this....
