John Russell's "Crying"

Don Kuhn · Post by **Don Kuhn** » 28 May 2017 10:24 am

Wow Wow Wow is all I can say about the way John tabbed the song Crying Orbison. It's a beautiful song played on the steel and John's composition of it is absolutely wonderful. I don't consider myself as a good player yet although I can make this song sound pretty darn good. All of John's work is so neatly arranged and easy to follow. John thank you from me all the way from Poetry Texas for sending this to me just after your surgery. I sent a prayer up asking for a speedy and not so painful recovery for you and I would bet Roy Orbison is smiling down from above at you.

Don

Thanks you so much for your comments, I do appreciate your kindness.

I had no problem tabbing this song for you. Roy Orbison is one of my Favorite Singers and the song cries out to be tabbed, such a lovely melody.

I hope you get a lot of pleasure from playing this.

Kind Regards

J.R.

Received the tab on "CRYING",John you did a great job arranging and voicing this song
It's another old classic,once you start playing off of the tab it just kind of pulls you in,hard
to stop,or move on to some other exercise,nice work John,and thanks!
Will need to find a backing track for this one!
