Here’s an attempt at creating a lush backing track for John Barry’s memorable and poignant melody. Theme From Midnight Cowboy — GH3K - John Barry Here's a video of me performing the tune with irp and three guitars: https://youtu.be/NsJmY2Gclmc

OK, I apologize for troubling you again; on second thought, style consistency in a busy forum is probably a worthy objective.

I thought you meant only on the chart itself, what difference does it make if I use parentheses in a thread title?

Sorry if this a repeat; my previous message may have been lost. Just wanted to thank you for your compliment on Equinox, and for the rhythm tip as well. I plan on learning a lot from you over here; your charts are amazing.

This is a hybrid arrangement of the original Atlantic Records’ release, with a smattering of Eddie Cochran. Swingin’ good time, either way, hepcats. Hallelujah, I Love Her So — GH3K - Ray Charles

Any chance of this version replacing the one on the jazz list? There has to be some kind of precedence for this process; so many of those charts are pretty low budget.

Thanks, Bob; very pretty. I've trashed mine and renamed yours to make it the master copy. Equinox - Sher Music - John Coltrane

Is this what you're looking for? Equinox - SM - John Coltrane

Thanks for the encouraging words. You might want to download the revised version; I had to repair a couple of errors I missed.

So you're basically asserting that it is somehow incorrect if the volta bracket is parallel with a bar line below it? What is the thinking behind this?

Two more threads disappeared. I try to reply, and when I click on "reason for editing," poof, it's gone. What's up with that? Bob, I couldn't find what you were talking about in the coda, but I did find that the C#m bar right before the 1st ending had only four spaces instead of five, so I...

The existing chart leaves much to be desired as it only contains the solo section, and the chords are dull. Plus it is not even in the right style. No intro, A section or coda. It's a joke. That being said, this song presented some tough challenges to even get in the ballpark. The intro is...

Here is a version I think is a lot closer to the original Roberta Flack hit. Feel Like Makin' Love - GH3K - G. McDaniels

Here's another one of my Sher Music (SM) versions of the popular standard. These changes sound like they were taken from Ray Charles' version arranged by Marty Paich, but your mileage may vary. Nancy (With The Laughing Face)-SM - Jimmy Van-Heusen

Sorry about that Bob. Thanks for moving it.

Baubles, Bangles, and Beads-Sinatra/Jobim version This was an attempt to emulate the bossa arrangement of this jazz waltz standard which appeared on the 1967 Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim album. It was not, however, my intention to create a karaoke style exact copy for singers...

That's an interesting take on the Sher transcriptions; you sound like you have more experience with them than I do. As for your chart, it's perfectly fine and my chords are almost exactly the same as yours now after my changes this evening (what's up with these question marks though; I have no...

I respectfully disagree. The Sher Music versions, in my experience of using them for about ten years, is that they are spot on. That being said, the reason this chart sounds screwed up is my fault. After reading your post, I found the problem behind what you were saying regarding some of the...

Here's another one for the pile; man, this one took more work than I thought, but sounds damn close: Porpoise Song (Theme from Head), The - Carole King

Noticed some slight imperfections in GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD (tempo, ending didn't work, style was off a bit), so made a few repairs. This sounds much closer to my ears, but you be the judge. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road GH3K - John Elton
