SONGS FROM THE SEAA FINGERSTYLE RULES SONGBOOK

SONGS FROM THE SEAUNDER THE SEAA nice Calypso from Disney’s „Little Mermaid“. Such a beautiful happy-go-lucky-swinging melody. I left outthat one long verse which is mainly there to prove how many fish names rhyme with musical terms.SEA OF LOVEA short piece with an interesting chord sequence. Written and recorded by Philip Baptiste in 1959, and often covered since then. There is also a reggae-inspired version of Brother Iz around, but I prefer the dreamyversion of the Honeydrippers.SAILINGRoddie again. It is one of those songs of which I like the intro more than the rest. Mind that the melodyin the first bars of part [ B ] is in the low end and keep the arpeggios in the background. The second voltabracket leads to the „can you hear me“ part, which continues regularly after two bars (go back to segno).LA MER / BEYOND THE SEAThis french chanson by Charles Trenet from 1946 became a jazz standard in the early fifties. I absolutelyadore Django Reinhard’s interpretation of it.SEASIDE RENDEZVOUSAnother one from my Lieblingsband. Any available background info you can find on „queensongs.info“. Justtwo key facts: (1) This particular tune was never performed live on stage by Queen, and (2) It was recorded without the participation of Brian May. Maybe (2) is the reason for (1). The full chords tabbed can alsobe strummed.RIPTIDEThis compilation is perfect opportunity to include Vance Joy’s ukulele classic which I missed out when it wasa hip tide. My usual problem. Always too late for the party (underlined parts are strummed).LOVE IS THE SEVENTH WAVEPosted this one earlier separately, but it didn’t get as many downloads as I think it deserves. And since itfits the theme, you should give it a second try. Perfect ukulele stuff.OCTOPUS’S GARDENA typical Ringo. In my humble opinion he is one of the the most underrated drummers in Rock’n Roll history. Listen to what he does in „Come together“, just to pick one of many examples.(SITTING ON THE) DOCK OF THE BAYA soul classic by Otis Redding. With a laid back groove, beautiful harmonies and an absolutely pointlessbridge (sorry for sounding rude). I skipped that part. [ A ] is the verse and [ B ] is the whistling at the end.The indicated strums should be slightly muted.RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON MY HEADBonus Track. Not really fitting into this maritime selection, but at least it has some relation to the wetelement. I took a lead sheet of the song with me to find an easier way of playing it than in the usual key ofF, which sounds a bit too high for me. I lowered it to C, and now it has lots of open strings and is perfectlynoodleable.
