I'm very tempted to come and join you guys - can somebody ping me details of what pieces are going to be covered? I will be on my own for that weekend and since I won't be able to go to the Irish do I'd like to steel some time for myself. <groan> :oops:

Be very tempted Will, it would be great if you could be there. Cheers, Andy.

Will that would be great! Recently we've been letting our singer Alex decide on the songs and we just wing it. We also have a list of backing tracks to go from and Alex might not be able to make this one. So I think we'll pick a few tracks in advance, maybe some new ones. PM me your email address and we'll get a discussion going. Jonathan

Been trying a couple of new ones to me, Secrete Love in F and Beneath Still Waters in D. Not sure if I'll get them into my head but will give then a go.... Saw David Hartley do these a little while ago, so got the backing tracks from David and now giving them a try. :shock:

Secret Love sounds like a good 'un. I worked up a version in E a while ago. Not hard to re-think it in F instead. Never listened to Beneath Still Waters. Must remedy that. What a Wonderful World, anyone? Or Moon River?

Barry, if you or anyone in the group have BIAB, I have an arrangement of " Beneath Still Waters " also in D which I am doing, it is much slower and may be easier to pick up. I can also send a recording of the tune so you can hear it.If you are interested send me an email to : [email protected] and I will send it to you. Hope the group is going well, cant believe this our 3rd year of the SSGW, its still a buzz. Donny.

Hi Donny,
Not sure about BIAB..not being technical...I don't know the format. Can you explain?

by **Barry** » Sat Oct 10, 2015 10:43 am

Will,
Those two sound good for putting on the 'To Do' list.

by **jonshack** » Sat Oct 10, 2015 12:52 pm

Good suggestions chaps, I've asked Donny for the recording as I don't have Band In A Box. If anyone has a track for Secret Love let us know. I think Wonderful World is a good one for practicing playing the melody, I'll try to find a track off that too, unless you have one Will?
