| Sad to say I'm one of the people that never took lessons. IM looking for the the best method for learning. I know tab has been around forever. I want to learn several of the old gospel songs note for note. I want to do a recording later and I want it to be right. Any ideas. Make it easy for me, LOL TY. |

Gary,
My tabs are written from sheet music and are note for note.
I have many, many gospel tabs.
If you send me your email address I'll send you a list of what I have.

Get Erv's tabs. Then practice 'til you can play it by heart. 'Til you know that song backwards and forwards. You will be great!

I have a number of Erv's tabs.
Excellent way to learn to read and learn chord structure. |

DeWitt Scott issued a great (basic) Gospel steel course many years ago. Tab book and corresponding audio that can be downloaded from the Web.
I'm sure DeWitt Scott's Gospel Course for E9th pedal steel is available on Amazon.... |

You know that in the south "Bless Your Heart" means kind of the opposite of its face-value definition right? Hehe

Jay,
I know it can be taken two different ways.

Posted 14 Aug 2024 7:51 am Why Erv's tabs?
|
|
Erv's arrangements are unique because he develops accurate melodies in chord form.
His take allows you to find "notes" in chord form that you probably would never consider on your own. I use his chord structures over and over to develop on the fly fills, breaks and tags.
Every tab is an encyclopedia of E9 chords. Worth every penny.
(I have tried unsuccessfully to get Erv to dig into the C6 pedal neck ) |
