Is Anybody Going to San Antoine. - Charlie Pride

[darrinc]

Ba Ba Black Sheep, Old McDonald and Bingo. I learned those ones so I can pander to my audience as they really didn't show interest in hearing me butcher "Wish You Were Here".

[Taylor814]

It was either Bourree in E minor, or Living in the Country; I honestly can't remember which.

The one I learned about a month ago......Jingle Bells....

[SarahMar]

I think it was "House of the Rising Sun". That might still explain my love for the Em...

I 'learned' songs but the first one I remember learning all the way through and all the guitar parts was "Something" by the Beatles. We played HS Homecomings and Winter Balls and we needed a slow song for the King and Queen dance. That was a perfect song for those dances and I really love the understated beauty of the solo. We learned "Smoke on the Water", "Cold Gin", "Cat Scratch Fever" , "Ridin' the Storm Out"....

"Greensleeves" in a very misguided attempt by my parents to get me playing classical guitar.

A year later "Under the Boardwalk" when I moved on to pop/rock kind of stuff.

Grand Old Duke of York, I was 8 at the time.
Strange coincidence is my wife asked me this question yesterday and I played the song for her , probably the first time I've played it in over 45 years.
