"Midnight in Paris" guitar waltz

adrianholovaty — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 05:54:07 +0000

	"Midnight in Paris" guitar waltz This is "Bistro Fada," the theme from the new Woody Allen movie "Midnight in Paris." Great movie, great tune! It's so fun to play. It's a waltz written by Stephane Wrembel, and you can hear (and buy) the real recording at his site: stephanewrembel.com I learned this by listening to it -- sorry, I don't have a tab or notation available. Also sorry for the video syncing issues; not my best editing work. For the guitar geeks: Guitar is my AJL model 503-XO. Strings are Argentine 10s (steel). Pick is a 2.0 mm Dunlop Gator Grip.

"Wonderful" Beach Boys guitar instrumental

adrianholovaty — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 21:08:46 +0000

	"Wonderful" Beach Boys guitar instrumental Here's my guitar arrangement of "Wonderful" by the Beach Boys, originally recorded as part of their unreleased 1966/1967 album "Smile." You can hear my favorite Beach Boys version (the Smile-era outtake) here: www.youtube.com . It is breathtaking. It was later officially released on "Smiley Smile" -- www.youtube.com -- but that's not as good. Then it was released on Brian Wilson's official "Smile" release a few years ago.
