Tage des Condors - Michael Haunschmid - Weissenborn Tablature

Michael — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 10:34:53 +0000

“Tage des Condors” ist a short musical idea. Definitely not finished, but: You can play it as a complete short tune. Nothing is really missing in this first part. But it surely needs some more parts! Maybe rhythmically not as tricky: There are a few rythm changes in the tune. Do you want to work on it and send me your ideas? I will put it on the website - with your credits!

Tuning: G H D G H D

Basin Street Blues - Spencer Williams - Weissenborn Tablature

Michael — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 16:44:54 +0000

Written by Spencer Williams in 1926 and recorded by Louis Armstrong in 1929. Since then there were hundreds of recordings of this jazz standard - including a version by Miles Davis in 1963. But I guess this is the first version for Weissenborn lap steel. Hope you like it.

Basin Street
A street in New Orleans, Louisiana. Once one of the finest residential streets in the city, it became a red light district around 1870. From 1897 through World War I, the back side of Basin Street was the front of the Storyville red light district, with a line of high end saloons and mansions devoted to prostitution.
Tuning: G H D G H D

Lyrics

Wont you come and go with me
Down that mississippi
Well take a boat to the land of dreams
Come along with me on, down to new orleans

Now the bands there to greet us
Old friends will meet us
Where all them folks goin to the st. louis cemetary meet
Heaven on earth…. they call it basin street

Im tellin ya, basin street…… is the street
Where all them characters from the first street they meet
New orleans….. land of dreams
Youll never miss them rice and beans
Way down south in new orleans

Theyll be huggin…. and a kissin
Thats what I been missin
And all that music….lord, if you just listen
New orleans….i got them basin street blues

Now aint you glad you went with me
On down that mississippi
We took a boat to the land of dreams
Heaven on earth…they call it basin street
