The hives have gone away and now I can breathe without the brown paper bag. :-) All your suggestions sound marvelous. Plus I know if I embarked on such an endeavor I would enlist the help of my good tabbing buddies Howard, Marian and Mark. I wonder what Joel Bernstein would say?! (since he should have written the book 20 years ago). Maybe he should be the "star witness!" I'd love to hear reactions to this idea.

I had the For The Roses songbook but couldn't figure anything out by myself. I first starting being intrigued by the tunings when Jim Leahy's 60 tunings list was published on Wally's site in 1995. At the same time, I discovered that some cat named Howard Wright was downloading spectacular tabs in the Joni folder of OLGA (the Online Guitar Archive--which was ultimately quasi-shutdown by BMI). I started collecting tabs and figuring out a couple of songs on my own and wanted one place to store them, so that's when I asked Les if I could put a website on the JMDL. The next big development was when Marian and Mark started helping, too and did an amazing amount of work figuring out some of the more difficult tabs. To this day I am completely baffled by the songs on Wild Things Run Fast and I was very grateful to Marian for figuring out some of those tunes! Man to Man--what a great song! And Mark's tabs of The Wolf That Lives in Lindsay and Blue Motel Room. Great work. But the real icing on the cake was when Les started using this Cold Fusion Software. Fusion--like late Miles and Weather Report!! :-) This created the great database where you can sort the whole shebang in any way you want. I don't know why I just felt compelled to say all that. I think I'm either trying to avoid work or am writing the first chapter to the book! :-) take care, sue > >>I'd love to hear reactions to this idea.<<< > >A fabulous idea!

It seems that Joel hasn't worked with Joni in several, several years. I'll add some input to the book later today.
