We’ve updated our tab of My Funny Valentine to include chord names and a shiny new pdf version. You can grab it here.
Oh, and while we’re on the subject, chord names have also been added to our arrangement of Autumn Leaves.
Wahey, our guitar tab of Autumn Leaves has now been converted into pdf format. Better still, instead of a pdf version that is virtually identical to the whoary old HTML page (as in our hasty, ham-fisted conversion of Alfie, ahem hem hem), the pdf includes full musical notation as well as tab, thus giving you the all-important timings as well as that stringy-fret malarkey…
…Um, because counting in eighth notes is obviously so damned difficult (!)
Anyway, god bless bless the sweaty, satisfying joys of ‘print to pdf’, the offspring of which can be downloaded here.
We’re just in the process of converting all our guitar tabs into pdf format. The first of our tabs to benefit from the Adobe voodoo is our spiffing chord melody version of Burt Bacharach’s Alfie, which you can download here.We’ll be ‘rolling out’ the rest of our tabs as pdf’s over the coming weeks. (Or months. Or years.) Although, having said that, we’ll probably get bored half-way through and swan off down the pub instead to drink bottled stout and do the la-de-da round the pool table. Oh, ikey, spikey, fikey, crikey.
In the meantime, you can still view our guitar tabs in good old HTML in your browser.
And the news is that the site’s news function is finally working again after about a year. Huzza!
In other words, we don’t actually have any news (and certainly no new guitar tabs), but if we did, we’d post it here.
Next update: 10th October 2011.
Welcome back to the new updated Jazz Monkeys website. We’re still offering the free jazz guitar tabs you’ve come to love, but we thought it was high time the site received a fresh lick of paint and a shiny new feature set. And here it is.
After a year of struggling with a broken website, we have moved the whole shebang on to Wordpress as it provides us with a Content Management System that is much easier for our ponderous little minds to cope with. We’ve also added RSS support and links to popular social bookmarking sites like Digg, Del.icio.us, Reddit and (um) Facebook. So now you can show how much you appreciate our gratis guitar juju by bigging us up on t’interweb…
(…though exactly why you would want to share our pitiful brand of amateur jazz misery with estranged chums on Facebook we really don’t know.)
Instead of resurrecting the forums - which have seen significant downtime due to incessant attacks by spam monkeys - we’ve added functionality to allow you to leave comments about individual guitar tabs. So get your hairy little mitts typing and feel free to tell us how irredeemably pants our chord melody tabs are and how we shouldn’t even be let near a guitar never mind a website. Alternatively, you could send us some of the moist love we so obviously crave.
New tabs will follow at some point, we promise, once we pull our collective monkey finger out. And finish lunch.
Of course, all this is a shamefully misleading attempt to appear Net 2.0 compatible. Hope you enjoy the tabs and see you on Myspace!*
(* That last bit was a plum-sized fib. We ain’t got no Myspace page)
