    Hi,

    Here's an old thread:

    viewtopic.php?t=812&highlight=echoes

    Copy of the score:

    Chord Chart by Michael Horowitz:

    Great composition! Perhaps a swing version should be done of the Star Spangled banner and someone should set their guitar on fire (oh, that's been done...)

    I think it's one of his best songs, it also contains one of his best solo improvisations.

    Just wondering.

    Does somebody know if there is a different Audio or Video file other than the Integrale version of Echoes of France ? :D

    It's a good time to check this tune right ? July 14 is coming up !

    Nope there's only one version of it. But you might wanna check the one that Fapy recorded on Star Eyes.

    It seems that 2 bars of Michael's chart fit into one of the original : 18 bars verse plus 10 bars chorus. Do I get that right ?

    Im at 80 % of learning his solo (WITH TWO FINGERS !!! YEAH) only need to get the speedy arpeggio to the 17 frett of the E string and the first arpeggio , I really want to post a vid on youtube but I dont have a backing track, maybey somebody can record a backing track, I cant because I only know the minor swing backing track ( im a newbie). plz. :D

    Thanks for your help guys.
    We played it at the French Embassy in DC this week end. It worked out pretty well :

    They're all basic chord shapes. Do you play rhythm guitar at all? Just use what you normally would...the chart doesn't show anything specific.

    best,
    Jack.

    I only know a bit about chords and why they are called so. But I can't find chord charts anywhere, and I'm thinking of buying Gypsy Rhythm in the future. Could somebody please please :D , post the chord fingerings of the Michael Horowitz Chord Chart. please :cry::D

    Like, when there is a Gm chord, I could read it when its posted so
    32xxx3 (example, not a Gm chord). But then I need all the chords of the Michael Horowitz Chord Chart :D

    You can find chord shapes for all the chords here:
    [url=http://nuagesdeswing.free.fr/accords/accords_index.html]http://nuagesdeswing.free.fr/accords/accords_index.html[/url]
    but you'll still need to know where the root notes are.

    To start it off, the G could be played like this:

    -5----
    -5----
    -4----
    -5----
    -5----
    -3----

    Maybe I'm still misunderstanding you...do you play [i]only [/i]solos, or do you also play rhythm? Or maybe you know chords by ear instead of name? I just can't figure out how you can play with other people if you don't know some basic chords...sorry if I'm missing something...

    Hope that helps,
    Jack.
