Hello world ~

One month ago I was an hour away from heading into the operating room for my back surgery. I’m glad it’s today and not then!!!

Although I still haven’t picked up a guitar again, I have been steadily transcribing my compositions and arrangements for others to learn. I just posted another one from the In-A-Gadda-Da-Stephen cd — my collection of rock tunes I knew and loved, arranged for harp guitar. That makes 12 finished from that cd now. Today’s post was Theme From An Imaginary Western, a great tune from the band Mountain.

Best to all,
sb

    Thank you for the transcriptions Stephen; they’re great! I love my new Karol harp and play it every chance I get. Somehow I am feeling my other guitars are somewhat obsolete. I hope you are feeling better soon. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
