Poppa gator, the tabs have appeared. Frank chose to put them on a different page. I have a direct link posted in the first message in this thread.

HERE IT IS AGAIN.

BTW, I'm sure our versions of "Mermaids" will be quite similar.


Susan, if I were more literate, I would gladly help you out; but, at the moment, I am dumbstruck. Perhaps some more savvy Catter will chime in to help you. If I figure out how, I will respond.

Can you let me know which songs you are interested in?

Tweed, check yore e mail soon.

RandyTab has some limitations which need mention. One of the biggies is that it is useless on a Mac.
Also, the "slides", "bends", "pull-offs" and "hammer-ons" are very difficult to tab in a manner that sounds good on the MIDI playback. To compensate I have added on the tablature "in-between frets" of the slide. For example, for a 2nd fret slide to the 12th fret, which should be tabbed as "2/12" is tabbed "2/5/7/9/12". It is a bit clumsy but it sounds better on the MIDI playback than standard tabbing. Keep in mind, I do the tabs to help someone who wants to learn. I do not do these to make pretty sounds on the playback.

A couple of good things about RandyTab...you can speed up or slow down playback. You can change the guitar "voice" to any one of many instrument voices available.

All the RandyTabs I have heard capture only the mechanics of how the tune is played. They do not capture the personality of the musician of the "life" he puts into the music. Each player must add that himself.

I have considered tabbing songs by other artists. At this point, I have tabbed only MJH and several of my own creations. Perhaps later I will try Rev. Gary.
