The concept of my blog is to combine the horizons of photographers (flickr) with the world of writers (wordpress). But sometimes, because I like to play guitar so much, I try to add music as a third dimension. For example, as I tried to write about the history and meaning of the song “Donna, Donna” [most asked keyword at my site specific search machine]. So, if you have interest, visit my page DONNA, DONNA – or similar articles for example about the song WALTZING MATILDA or the song WADE IN THE WATER, St. James Infirmary etc.

Frizz, there are two beautiful parts I really like. They are .20-.39 and .44-.55. I think it is so nice that you share your third dimension, your creative being. We get to know a bit about you 🙂

.20-.39 and .44-.55 are the point numbers/markers on the sound cloud.

very kind, Allyson, to watch precise the seconds of the soundcloud track: a motivation for me, to upload expanded arrangements from the same song, adding more bass-lines and improvisation breaks. The song has three basic parts:
1 – Am E, Am E, Am Dm, E Am :// = 0.00-0.20 and again at 0.58-1-18
2 – G G7 Am Am, G G7 Am Am, G G7 Am Am, Am E Am E = 0.21-0.38
3 – E E7 Am Am, G G7 Am Am, E E7 Am Am, Am E Am E7 = 0.40-0.56
P.S.:
Because I fell ill, I cannot continue with my daily project, uploading one article every day. I hope I still are able to participate on Friday’s Weekly Photo Challenge – and I try to continue my Tuesday’s A to Z challenge, asking for YOUR ideas weekly…

Hi Frizz,
I’m not good at evaluating music, so forgive if I have it wrong. I went back to listen to “Donna- donna”. The dominant seventh chord and choir in part 2 and part 3 are quite beautiful! I very much look forward to your expanded versions.
I understand now reflecting back on your previous posts.
I wish and hope for you to have sunshine every moment, every day, and every month you are convalescing. When you post an entry, I will smile and know that you’ve had an extra sunshine day. I, of course, smile often when reading your posts…full of your innate sense of humor 🙂
Yours Allyson, age 46

I must admit that I’m not familiar with the song. But after listening to your rendition, I quite like it. Then I went to your related post on the history of the song and wow! A melancholic folksy melody like this to be a political cry for resistance! Amazing.

Just lovely playing and familiar tune but your rendition is touching.
