My latest Old Standard should be familiar to most all: "All Of Me".
It was written by Seymour Simons & Gerald Marks in 1931.

I got around to tabbing out a couple more Old Standards over the weekend.

The 1st is a song written by Oscar Hammerstein II and Jerome Kern in 1939: "All The Things You Are".

The 2nd is a song written by Jimmie Hodges in 1929: "Some Day (You'll Want Me To Want You).

[Erv Niehaus]

The '30s were certainly a great period for song writing. I just finished up tabbing a song from 1930 written by Al Neiburg, Doc Daugherty & Ellis Reynolds: I'm Confessin'(That I Love You).

[Erv Niehaus]

My latest Old Standard is a song written in 1930 by Edward Heyman, Robert Sour, Frank Eyton & John Green:
"Body And Soul".
Over the years, this song has been recorded by the likes of:
Billie Holiday
Ella Fitzgerald
Benny Goodman
Sarah Vaughan
Stan Kenton
Amy Winehouse
& Tony Bennett

[Erv Niehaus]

Bernie,
Your Old Standard tabs are in the mail.
Thanks so much!

[Erv Niehaus]

My latest tab is: "Heartaches".
This song goes back to 1931 and was written by John Klenner and Al Hoffman.
I thought maybe I should list it under "Country Classics" because Patsy Cline had a hit with it and Chet Atkins did a great job on it also,
But a couple of big bands, Ted Weems and Ray Coniff, did it up first.

[Art Beard]

Hi Erv, Could you send me the following: Always on my mind; Heartaches; Only you; over the rainbow; and unchained melody. Please send with the country classics I send you shortly.. Thanks Art

[Erv Niehaus]

My latest Old Standard is a song that was a big hit for Connie Francis back in 1960: "Where The Boys Are".
One of the co-writers was Neil Sedaka, another rock and roller.

Joey,
Thanks so much for the $$$$. That was much to generous!
I hope you like the tab.
I wasn't all that familiar with the song so it was a bit of a challenge. Also I don't recall tabbing out a song in 5 sharps before!
We maybe should let the forum brothers in on the song you were wanting.
Joey requested the song: "New Orleans Ladies".
He said if you were a Southern steeler, you had to know this song.
Thanks again.

[Erv Niehaus]

Another fan of "New Orleans Ladies".
