In The Mood" for beginners??

Post by John Hanusch »

Over in the "Tech" section,"Righthand Technique" topic, Dan Behringer referred to a simple version of this. Could Dan or someone else post that tab here or a link to it?? E9th pedal or C6th non-pedal or both. Thank you. jh<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by John Hanusch on 31 May 2000 at 08:22 AM.]</p></FONT>

I see no one has responded so here's my simple arrangement. It's a good tune since it gives you a chance to slip in lots of Maj6 chords (or are they m7 chords? Image).

I'm new to lap steel. I know I can embellish the arrangement by arpeggiating some of the chords, adding grace notes, sliding into some of the notes, etc.. However, I'm really curious to hear if anyone has a more sophisticated arrangement or maybe a different way to harmonize it.
