OK- my contribution.
The tonic is 'A'. No surprise there.
I found this quickly last night after looking @ it for a minute or so.
The melody line is one-off.

This was quite fun. The fingerpicked guitar has counterpoint lines (A section). The B section revolves around the 5th.

Really nice! I played quickly with the chords last night on acoustic and didn't "feel" anything coming. May try something on piano to see if it sparks anything.
This afternoon I've got the songwriter circle, tomorrow Beatles band practice, so I need to put some more time into practicing the bass and harmony parts for that. Nice to be musically busy!

yowzah. cool take on that progression, jook! and definitely the best so far!!!

i guess i need to get off my as$ and jump in with something. next day or say....i promise.

who luvs ya, baby!

nice tones from that Guild, btw.

I f-ed around the progression last night, tried it with open b and E strings and came up with a nice sound, and a B and C section. Noodling around, I had another nice song going, too. So I pull out my folder of lyrics to see if any of them might work. nope, nope, not really. Realized that most of the lyrics that still remain in that pile are more rock/hard-sounding. Back to the lyric drawing board!

We had two guitars goin at practice this weekend and I totally forgot to break out this one. Dangit!

ok...i did a rush job on this (read: hatchet job).

here's a gypsy jazz version of the progression.

instr:

rhythm gtr and single line gtr melody ... Paris Swing GG-42
mando...'87 Flatiron A5 Jr
bass... ''38 KAY C-1

Good stuff!!
I'm partial to the guitar # myself.

My old buddy Hop-Sing's Dad had an old Kay doghouse.
That was a cool old bass. Wish I had one.

thanks, buddy. i would have bet real big bucks that you'd prefer that gtr/mando take !!!!

when i have some time i'll share the story about that old KAY.
