22 Mar 00 - 04:09 PM (#199323) Subject: RE: October Roses From: Amos I'm sorry to say the DT does not have a MIDI file for this particular song, or I would have worked out a set of chords for you (assuming I could do so by ear which I usually can do). Someone must have an MP3 or know the song as a performer... |

23 Mar 00 - 07:37 PM (#200256) Subject: RE: October Roses From: Mark Cohen Yes, I know the song (and the songwriter, Linda Allen) but I'm heading off to the airport momentarily for a week in Oregon and Massachusetts! If I find time and a computer in the next week I will put down the words and chords for you. Knowing, the Mudcat, though, someone will probably beat me to it. It's a wonderful song. Aloha, Mark |

23 Mar 00 - 07:45 PM (#200264) Subject: RE: October Roses From: Joe Offer Well, there's a sound clip of it here (click). The album is terrific, by the way, and it's a joy to hear Cindy Mangsen perform in person. -Joe Offer- |

03 Apr 00 - 03:11 PM (#206121) Subject: RE: October Roses From: wysiwyg Guest-- the changes were paced and placed to fit how Cindy Mangsen does the tune-- I'll try sending you the sound file, although probably I am not in the same key as her version due to differences in vocal range. When you get the file, let me know via reply to that address if a tape of the song with chord changes played would help, and I'll try to make one for you. I don't sing as well as whatever version you heard, but I'll give it a whack. It's a great song-- must be really frustrating-- sorry!! ~Susan~ |

04 Apr 00 - 01:59 AM (#206384) Subject: RE: October Roses From: Mark Cohen Suffering from jet lag...I have Linda Allen's recording of the song, on her album of the same name. I couldn't get Joe's CDNow sound clip to work, so I don't know how close Cindy's version is. Just reading Susan's chords I think they're probably close, but the timing may be different. I don't know if Linda still has her tape or CD in print, but it's worth hearing if you can find it. If I get the chance I will try to get a tape of LInda's version to Susan, because I doubt I will have the time to post my chords. A little side note regarding the folk music web (the old one, not the WWW): Soon after moving from Portland to western Mass., where I spent a year in exile in academia (1984-85), I went to a small folk festival in Northern Connecticut, where I heard Cindy Mangsen perform. Before doing this song -- or maybe it was "Take Your Time" -- she said, "I learned this song from Faith Petric in San Francisco," and a voice from the crowd yelled out, "Yay, Faith!" The voice sounded familiar. I looked, and it was my friend Valentine Doyle, a former stalwart of the San Francisco Folk Music Club, whom I'd first met while singing shanties at a sea festival in Portland, and who had just moved to Connecticut! One of the things I love about the Mudcat is it helps me make connections like that. In fact, I'm sure several 'Catters were at that very festival. Aloha, Mark |

10 Sep 01 - 10:45 AM (#546239) Subject: RE: Tune Req: October Roses From: wysiwyg We did have a thread in the past with the lyrics and chords. Joe Offer has the CD... maybe he still has a sound file of this he can send you-- I think I recall that he had made one for someone else. Try a PM to him, and try a Filter Search with an Age Filter setting of two years, to find the old thread with October Roses as your search term. ~Susan |
