Please can anybody help me with the chords of 'Bimbo' ...Full title 'I'm =
going to take my Bimbo back to the bamboo Isle' by Jack Palmer and =
Spencer Williams. Clarence Williams and his Orchestra play it on Volume =
1 1927-1928. Some two years ago Bob Romans very kindly sent me the band =
parts for 'My little Bimbo' , but nobody at that time had the Spencer =
Williams tune. I am still looking for chords to 'Some Sweet Day' (Turk =
Murphy?) As to Dan Augustine's query .. ALL of the Portuguese members =
of the DJML collect OKOM and Ragtime CDs, books, and play in a =
band...that's me....... and while I'm here, it seems that OKOM bands all =
have uniforms of some kind while modern style musicians never do. Is it =
because trad musicians play for each other (as a team) while funk, =
fusion, etc. only play for themselves..I'm generalising of course, but =
here in Portugal that is invariably the case.
