Quick Navigation Pane News 23.4.2006

Oh dear - Paul Hilton sent me this one in Mar 2002. Hey, I got there in the end! Why Are The Beautiful So Sad?

13.4.2006

Happy New Year!

And thanks to Steve for two more tabs, Right On Time and Sometimes I Think About You, off "Boots" of course. And as I'm a bit of a lazy arse, I'm just going to stick them in the A-Z section so I don't have to mess about too much. Enjoy! Oh, the Lessons Section hasn't quite written itself yet, expect the first one sometime in the next year or so... :( Let's be honest, it's not going to happen really is it? One of these days...

23.12.2005

Well Mark (Sparky_12?) has asked for this one... don't know why I forgot to include it before, so I've quickly knocked it up while at work - so there may be an error or two as they don't let me plat the guitar here... Up Here In The North Of England

19.10.2005

Something I'm hoping you'll all love.... These Are The Days supplied by Mark Ireland's guitar teacher Ed. I've been very good to you all and tabbed out the guitar solo as well... easier to play than it sounds! NEW FEATURE - I'm getting quite into all this again, so watch out for a new Lessons Section, where I'll take the occasional song or solo and go into it in much more depth... the solo from These Are The Days (already tabbed out and on the site!) is in the pile for the full treatment... so watch this space!

11.10.2005

Ooh, I've REALLY got the bit between the teeth! They Will Find You Out.

11.10.2005

New Extras Section added, with links to cover versions Macca has either recorded or played live.

Birds Fly (Whisper To A Scream) copied from another site. That's Whisper To A Scream (Birds Fly) for our American friends.

06.10.2005

Two new songs, courtesy of Reece Smith - I'm a Genius and May You Always. Cheers Reece!

03.10.2005

Another new song... Unfinished Business In London Town (for Lee)

27.9.2005

The website has been redesigned to make it clearer and easier to navigate (and maintain!). New features include: All albums listed on one easily navigable page; a complete A-Z Listing of all songs including rarities and b-sides (work in progress); no Java scripts.

NOTE: most of the (older) songs will have a link at the bottom of the page called "previous" which will not work - eventually this link will disappear or be replaced. For the time being, just use the "Back" button in your browser to return to this page.
