🇬🇧 Since I saw the Tinderticks concert on October 7th, 2024, at Theater des Westens, Berlin, I have been listening to „Lady With A Braid“ literally non-stop. It resonates in my heart and soul, and I’ll explain why in a minute.
🇩🇪 Die Famous Gold Watch Audiovisual Studios in Berlin-Weißensee sind ein solcher Herzensort für jede*n, der oder die Indie und Alternative Musik mag, dass man eigentlich nicht darüber schreiben sollte. Denn immer, wenn zu viele Menschen von etwas Großartigem wissen, zerstören sie es. Andererseits ist die Geschichte des märchenhaften Musikkellers zu schön, um nicht erzählt zu werden.
🇬🇧 Tomaso Albinoni’s original composition is in three-four time (three-quarter time). But The Doors play the Adagio in G Minor in four-four time (common time). This arrangement for solo guitar follows The Doors‘ version. To make it easier to play on the guitar, it’s not arranged in G Minor but E Minor.
🇬🇧 The Weeping Song: One of my alltime favorite songs by Nick Cave (along with Red Right Hand and Where The Wild Roses Grow). I’m so excited about the upcoming Wild God Tour since the last tour I had bought tickets for got postponed (2020) and then cancelled (2021) because of the pandemic. I recently (2024) revisited this Weeping Song solo guitar arrangement (originally from 2022) and revised it.
🇬🇧 I think I’ll start a little series of recommendations for fingerstyle blues guitar exercises. What’s so favorite about this one? Well, for one I love altered tunings and „Bull Frog Groan“ needs a drop D tuning. Also, I love a quite a few of the blues pieces in Woody Mann’s guitar book „Blues Roots – An Original Repoertoire Approach for Fingerstyle Blues Guitar“ [Amazon Affiliate Link]. You will find the music sheet and guitar tablature for „Bull Frog Groan“ in it, too.
🇬🇧 There are lots of Deep River Blues guitar tabs to be found online (and for free), but this one is special. It combines the best parts of them all.
🇩🇪 OMG, wieviel Geld man als Gitarrist*in über die Jahre hinweg für minderwertige, überdimensionierte oder einfach ungeeignete Technik und Software für die Gitarrenaufnahme ausgibt, bis man endlich eine Ausstattung zusammen hat, mit der man wirklich etwas anfangen kann!
There are very few music sheets to be found online for this particular tune, and this is the […]
It’s quite scary to stand on a small table in a dark planetarium on 8cm highheels without any […]
