Summer Breeze (Martin goes to sunny California)

Free TAB at http://tallstrom.com
A simple idea that turned elaborate... I had my evil twin come in and he was unexpectedly kind enough to lay down some guitar fills and octave stuff, he also sang and wrote the corny lyrics ;)

You were gone so long
I wrote this song, just to have you near me
it can´t be wrong when you feel like I do
I know you from my dreams
you´re my summer breeze

(Dedicated to Marie & Markus)

The song is in Eb (E flat) so one guitar is in standard tuning, "C-shape" + capo 3rd fret, and the other is in open D tuning, capo 1st fret.

I´m sorry it´s been awhile since I uploaded something new, a lot of non-guitar related issues put the guitar picking on hold...

BTW, the new album Acoustics is now available also at iTunes! Here´s a convenient address...

Your work is simply amazing. Thank you for this beautiful song and your evil twin must have been on his "best behavior"

[pinofluvius]

Thank you sailfish! oh yeah, the twin behaved well, but he was only in it for the money, I´m almost ruined now

(ha ha)

[ox0Jason0xo]

fuck man wasent expeting that iv downloaded the tab will be learning it right away and the singing goes so well with this this was a very well composed song is it an original?

[pinofluvius]

Thanks, how´s the tab coming along?

It´s an original song. I´m thinking of putting it on an album, hopefully some time next year.

[MBlues02]

Well, I was (predictably) searching out Seals and Croft, but what a great find! Outstanding composition executed with flair, rounded off by great sound production and a cool video to boot. Many claps indeed.

I'm off now to check out that website

[pinofluvius]

Thank you very much for the kind words!

Oh yeah, I didn´t realize until this was posted there were many other songs with the same title (although that ´s a no-brainer :)

Cheers

This is one of the few songs I will never grow tired of hearing. It is a gentle masterpiece.

Even though you enjoy your playing, as it shows, you're also providing happiness to many other people listening to your soulful arrangements. Keep going, my friend!
