Bright Lights Blonde Haired Women

1999-01-19 Thread Matt Benz

Any and all talented musicians on the list:

Working on figuring the chords for Bright Lights  Blonde Haired Women"
off of Ray Price's NIghtlife album. I'm close, but a few of the jazzier
type chords are alluding me, particulary when the bassline gets fancy.
I'm working it in the key of F. Lemme know what you come up with off
list, please.

Thanks,

Matt

I had a feeling its origins might lie outside of country music, farther
than Ford, I would think. I didn't look at the writing credits tho.

 Just so ya know, that tune goes back further than Ray.  I have an
 early
 '50s version from Tennessee Ernie Ford, but I'm not sure if that's the
 original.--don

West Coast country fella Eddie Kirk wrote it, which means it may very
well have been performed first by Tennessee Ernie.  Then again, some other
West Coaster may have had first crack at it.--don

[Matt Benz]  Hmm. Guess that blossoming Nashville Sound of
Price's version threw me off. Damn sentimental pop tripe...G


Just kidding. Please, no strings wars!
