Thread Name: Mississippi John Hurt Tabs posted
Subject: Mississippi John Hurt Tabs posted
I have sent 20+ Mississippi John Hurt songs which I have transcribed to tablature to Frank Delaney, who has posted them on the MJH Museum website.
They include several of his "standards" and a few of his more obscure songs, including a number of his gospel renditions.
The tunes use the "RandyTab" Tablature/Midi Program which must be downloaded to open the files. It is a very small, free and quickly installed program. It is a very easy to use program which can be used to write one's on tablature. It is available HERE
I have transcribed these as accurately as I know how to play them. No doubt, there are mistakes; however, I think these will definitely help anyone wants to learn these songs.
They are: Ain't Nobody Like You Avalon Blues Baby What's Wrong With You Candy Man Blues Casey Jones Coffee Blues Corinna Corinna Do Lord, Remember Me Just Over in the Glory Land Here I Am, Oh Lord Send Me I Shall Not Be Moved Joe Turner Blues Louis Collins Three Song Blend (Avalon My Hometown, Moanin' the Blues, Lonesome Blues) Let The Mermaids Flirt With Me Monday Morning Blues Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor Nearer My God To Thee Poor Boy, Long Way From Home Hey Baby Right Away Shake That Thing You Are My Sunshine Weeping and Wailing What A Friend We Have in Jesus
