Where did you get the music from? Or did you learn it all by ear?

[LeonArchtop]

I learned it all by ear. I must admit that I had a software program that could slow down the tune without changing the pitch. That was a big help. This song was not so hard to transcribe because most of the song is single note. I want to transcribe a lot more recordings from mr. Lang, Kress and McDonough, but I don’t really have the time. Hope to upload the song Helena in Kress tuning soon.

@LeonArchtop Great interpretation!!! Is that a 20s archtop? 

[LeonArchtop]

@n64wilbert Thanks, no the guitar is from 1935/36

Really nice. I think that Eddie played that whole tone descending pattern in the third and fourth bar of the theme on one string. That's what it sounds like to me, anyway.
