Date: 27 Jan 93 19:02:56 GMT
Organization: New Mexico State University

This is an unrequested tabulature for Paul Simon's Bookend's theme which I  
sat down and figured out.  It pertains to the request that I have, so if  
you can help me, this will help you...

4-----4--5-----4--5-|----4--5-----4--5--|--4-----------4-----|
C--7--------7-------|-7--------7--------|-----5-----5-----5--|
A-----6--6-----6--6-|----6--6-----6--6--|--4-----4-----4-----|
P--7--------7-------|-7--------7--------|-----6--6--6-----6--|
O-------------------|-------------------|--------------------|
4-------------------|-------------------|--------------------|


4-----------------------|--4--------------4--|
C--7--5-----5--5--7--5--|-----5--------5-----|
A--------6--------------|--4-----4--4-----4--|     And repeat...
P--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|-----6--6--6--6-----|
O-----------------------|--------------------|
4-----------------------|--------------------|

The song 'Old Friends' is fingerpicked on these same (and other very  
similar) chords, which makes sense since they are basically one song.  If  
you can identify either by tabulature or by chord what Mr. Simon is doing  
(musicwise), then please let me know.  I have learned about half of Old  
Friends and have reached an impasse.  PLEASE NOTE THAT BOTH SONGS ARE  
CAPOED AT THE FOURTH FRET.  I have not adjusted the tabulature for that,  
the frets given are absolute numbers.  Also note that you need a capo to  
play this, unless you have an extra finger.

Sorry to all you Pantera fans, but this won't help you.  All I saw was
"Please God, Someone help me with."  I didn't bother reading the
Pantera part, and so I though you were asking for help on the Smiths
"Cemetary Gates."  There's a big difference, I know.  As Bob Mould

Sure, what the hell, I'll jump in.
I learned to read music before I even started guitar, and still use staff
when playing classical, or composing for instruments such as woodwinds.
However, if I want to pick up a lick or the fingering of a good weird
jazz chord, TAB works great. Anyways, music is HEARD, not seen.  I trust
my ear above all else.

  
Is there a way your guitar was "meant to be played"? I'm very sorry.

Hey Mr. CoolMusicReader, could you please post a follow-up containing a
good method of posting "real music" to usenet?  You know, the kind of
real music that has half-notes, quarter-notes, etc.  That's what I thought.

Many of us *do* read music, but tablature is well-suited to be used in 
cyberspace.

Well, musical notation is not natural for guitar players, but you can get
used to it. Historically, tabulatures were used quite a lot in Lute
music.

Musical notation comes from singing, and from bowing instruments. It
is pretty easy to do the correspondences on a violin, so there is no
tabulature in use for violins (and without any frets, the numbering
would be a problem, because you have a whole fifth at the disposal
of one unmoved hand). It was pretty straightforward to adapt the
notation to keyboard instruments, so that was done after a while
(Note that baroque and earlier music has a lot of "numbered bass"
notations, where a bass tone was noted with a numbered harmony
system for improvisation).

The adaption to guitar was mainly to unify notations, and is in
my opinion the most debatable. However, it made life easier for
composers, and for performers, which did not want do transcribe
everything before playing from a different instrument.

Obviously, tab is more natural and faster to learn, but maybe not
of that widespread use, especially in professional scores.

1. I agree!

2. Some of the tabulature I've seen has used a circle around the "note" to 
   indicate a half- or full-note. This is intuitive and therefore easy to read.

      		well, from looking at the form described above, I see:
				EEG#DFxE. 
		with the F## against the G# in the upper octave,
		this spells out an  E7add9 chord as I've seen it written  
		in Guitar for the Prac. Musician or E7add#9 if you want to  
		be technical. If you move the form around the fretboard  
		you can get a bunch of really cool sounds. Also, check 	 
		this out: 

	E  A  D  G  B  E
	T  x  |  |  1  x
	|  x  |  2  |  x
	|  x  3  |  |  x
	|  x  |  |  |  x
T=thumb.
		in first position it's just a new way to play an F, but
		move it up to the ninth postion, seventh position and 
		back down to first, with a little hammer on the B from
		open back to second fret and you have half the first verse
		of the Wind Cries Mary. For more of this tune or some 
		Stevie Ray Vaughn (Lenny; the first tune off the second
		side of Texas Flood-can't remember the name, typical SRV
		boogie; Texas Flood; Voodoo Chile, etc.) post a request.
		Also, if anyone has Scuttle Buttin' by SRV, I'd really 
		like to see it posted, thanks.
