Well if you are doing one Paul Weller, then why not consider another?
Maybe try the quite fabulous "Broken Stones" or the irresitable sing-a-
long that is a "Town Called Malice"...
> Back On The Chain Gang - The Pretenders
Great choice.

Diminished chords - really?
Almost every Broadway show tune (think Gershwin, Porter,
Rodgers/Hart/Hammerstein, Kern, Berlin) has a chord structure which
depends on the diminished (strictly, the flattened ninth of the
tonic). And it makes some appearances in the blues (of the electric,
Chicago, brand). >> Stay informed about: Acoustic set list |
