GUEST,.gargoyle Best way to learn tunes (29) RE: Best way to learn tunes 03 Sep 21


Verses for me are very different than tunes.
Tunes just rise from within.

I was brought up, from age eight or before, to memorize,"because it is easier than looking it up".

Short ditties and 10 minute pieces:
Owl and the Pussy Cat
Tom Twist
Sam McGee
Lady that was Known as Lou
Bar Room Floor
Raven
Bells


As many of ... or more soliloquy.

And then come the songs.
So easy, so natural.
The more ribald, the easier.I
They cling like lichens to a rock within my brain.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle

Such waisted youth - imagine if it had been chapter and verse of scripture.
