Music to Transcribe (alphabetical)

These are tunes and songs that have not yet been added to the Fumblin' Fingers repertoire, mainly because we have not 'transcribed' them. That is to say, we think we might want to play them, but we need to do the research on them, find an abc version (or hand-create one), then code into lilypond, create the history html pages, etc. This would be the starting point for new music, once it has been 'transcribed, and it looks like we would like to try it, it will get moved to the 'ToTry' folder. This page is sorted alphabetically.

Each song listed has it's own web page, where (eventually) you can find some descriptive information, a .pdf file of the song as played by the Fumbling Fingers, (occasionally) a .midi file which is representative of the song as played by the Fumbling Fingers, and variants, with accompanying .pdf and .midi files. Status of each page is (OBVALS = Original:Background:varABCs:ABCs:Lilypond:Snippet) Green means it is complete, yellow means it has been started, red is either not done, or unknown.
