Hi everyone,
The song of the week is 'Little Birdie' in the key of Bb. Recordings Red Smiley - key of A Little Birdie - YouTube Jason Homey & The Snake River Boys - key of Bb (song starts at 15:55) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJAtP8irWYs The Stanley Brothers - key of Eb https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sakr_M1KMaM Lonesome River Band - key of B https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaQXT-sgtOg Jam Videos Keys of Bb & C Jason’s YouTube Links – Alphabetical Listing – Parisology (cyberplasm.com) Progression 1155 5511 1155 5511 In the key of G: 1 = G, 5 = D In the key of A: 1 = A; 5 = E In the key of Bb: 1 = Bb; 5 = F In the key of B: 1 = B; 5 = F# In the key of C: 1 = C; 5 = G In the key of Eb: 1 = Eb; 5 = Bb Attachments In addition to the melody sheets, I have included in the attachments a lyric cheat sheet for the four verses that I sing for Little Birdie. Since three of the verses start the same way ('Little birdie, little birdie'), and the first and fourth verses have identical first halves, the lyric cheat sheet does not give the first words of each verse (except for the second verse, for that one begins differently than the other verses), but rather the first words that distinguish each verse from the other three verses. Song List 16 songs were played at last night's jam: 10 from the main list, 4 from the additional songs list, and 2 that are on neither list: Cry, Cry Darlin' - G Footprints In The Snow - C Gold Watch And Chain - Bb Homestead On The Farm - C In The Sweet By And By (played twice) - G & C Little Birdie - Bb Love Of The Mountains - A This Little Light Of Mine - B Turkey In The Straw - G Why Don't You Tell Me So - B Cold Frosty Morning - Am Lonesome Road Blues - G Reuben - D Steel Rails - C Banks Of The Ohio - C Another Night - G Happy Pickin', Jason Files: Little Birdie - banjo tab (G capo 3 = Bb) Download File Little Birdie - guitar tab (G capo 3 = Bb) Download File Little Birdie - mandolin tab (Bb) Download File Little Birdie - melody in Bb Download File Little Birdie - lyric cheat sheet Download File Hi everyone, The song of the week is 'This Little Light Of Mine' in the key of B.
