Hey all

Before posting, I was wondering if the Acker Bilk Hit
"Stranger On The Shore", was a hit over there in the USA.

It was a major hit over here, but as a Brit, I have no knowledge of your music history.

The version that I tabbed was based on the Platters.

As often the case, many songs are originally recorded by other artists.

Kind regards.

If enough folks are interested, I have tabbed this great performance and will put it on the Forum for Free in October. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
