With all those wonderful country-tinged waltzes that Frank keeps coming up with, I am inspired to try my hand on a few ones as well. This one is by the Canadian fiddler Andy DeJarlis (1914-1975), or "de Jarlis" as Wikipedia have it. 1921 Gibson Ajr mandolin Vintage Viaten tenor guitar https://youtu.be/QE81-5-G74w I used a transcription by Alf Edwards, from an old ABC collection of his -- to please Simon, here it is: X: 1 T:Poor Girl Waltz R:waltz C:Andy de Jarlis Z:added by Alf Warnock - alf0@rogers.com - http://members.rogers.com/alf0 M:3/4 L:1/8 K:C g ^fg|"C"a6|"Cmaj7"g4-g^f|"C6"a3/2g/2 e3/2c/2 A3/2c/2|"Cmaj7"G4-GE| "C"G3/2c/2 e3/2g/2 a3/2b/2|"Cdim"a4 g2|"Dm7"B6-|B3g ^fg| "Dm7"a6|"G7"g6|"Dm7"a3/2g/2 f3/2d/2 B3/2A/2|"G7"G6| d6|"G+"g4 a2|"C"e6-|e3g ^fg| "C"a6|"Cmaj7"g4-g f|"C6"a3/2g/2 e3/2c/2 A3/2c/2|"Cmaj7"G4-GE| "C"G3/2c/2e3/2g/2 a3/2b/2|"C7"a4 e2|"F"g2 f2"A7" d2|"Dm"A6| "Dm"d6|"Fm"c4"Cdim" A2|"C"G3/2c/2 e3/2g/2 a3/2b/2|"A7"a2 g3e| "D7"d6|"G7"e4 G2|"C"c6-|c2 E2 F2|| "C"G6|"Cdim"G2 ^F3A|"C"G6-|"C"G2 E2 F2| G2 A2 B2|"Adim"c2 a3g|"G7"B6-|B2D2 E2| "Dm7"F6-|"F"F2 E3G|"Dm"F6-|F2 D2 E2| F2 G3A|"G7"B2 d3c|"C"E6-|"C"E2 E2 F2| G6|"Cdim"G2 ^F3A|"C"G6-|G2 E2 F2| G2 A2 B2|"C7"c2 a3g|"F"f6-|f4 de| "Dm"f2 d3d|d4 cd|"C"e2 c3c|"Cdim"c4 Bc| "G7"d2 B3A|G2 e3d|"C"c6-|c3:| Martin
Thanks Martin.
The warm sound of your Gibson suites the waltz very well, Martin.
Love it Martin! I've been looking at this...
Many thanks for the kind words -- I am also working on another Andy DeJarlis waltz, which I hope to have up soon! Martin
Waltzes are becoming the tunes of choice in our group, I reckon. Nice job on this one, Martin.
I’m catching up on a few waltzes…before I head out walking on the Anglesey coastal path…another fine one here, Martin.
Love the tremolo, fine recording, Martin!
