Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Navajo Trail From: katlaughing Date: 11 Feb 00 - 03:24 PM Well, the Old Cowboy Midi Site addy I had is no good, but I was able to find the following. Is it what you're looking for? This has ebautiful imagery: wind strumming a sagebrush guitar, I cna just hear it out here in windy Wyoming! How about you join us in the HearMe virtual song circle this Sunday, so we can hear the tune? If this is the right one that it. Just look for the thread with HearMe and Feb. 13 in the title. All the best, kat

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Navajo Trail From: katlaughing Date: 11 Feb 00 - 03:51 PM Oh, MMario, that's probably the right one. It sounds familiar. Oh, well, I still thing the sagebrush strumming wind-guitar is great poetry! |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Navajo Trail From: GUEST,KJ Date: 11 Feb 00 - 11:57 PM Isn't the melody that accompanies the first set of lyrics based on Ferde Grofe's Grand Canyon Suite, specifically the passage titled "On the Trail?" |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Navajo Trail From: MMario Date: 12 Feb 00 - 12:05 AM Do you mean first as in first posted or first as in first published which is the second set posted? |

Subject: Grofe - themes in Grand Canyon Suite From: Joe Offer Date: 20 Aug 04 - 01:53 PM The "Grand Canyon Suite" question is a good one. Grofe used themes that seem like cowboy songs - but I don't think I recognize any of them. There are five parts to "Grand Canyon Suite" (are parts of a suite called "movements"?) - the five are Sunrise, Painted Desert, On the Trail (not Navajo Trail), Sunset, Cloudburst. "On the Trail" has a very distinctive melody that sounds like a silver-screen cowboy song, but I don't think it is a real song. This page (click) has the story of the Wisconsin roots of "Grand Canyon Suite." Hey, I didn't know that.... -Joe Offer, Proud to be a Wisconsin Boy- |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Navajo Trail From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 20 Aug 04 - 01:55 PM Lyrics given by MMario are correct. I believe Bing Crosby repeated the last two verses (starting 'I love to lie....'. |
