Default "I´m confessin´ that I love you" - (Daugherty/Reynolds) - fingerstyle solo guitar

Hi friends of fingerstyle guitar music,

this is my fingerstyle solo guitar arrangement of the jazz standard "I´m confessin´ that I love you´ ",
written by Doc Daugherty and Ellis Reynolds in 1929.

Jazz giants like Louis Armstrong (who played this tune throughout his career), Fats Waller, Ella Fitzgerald,
Les paul and Mary Ford, Django Reinhardt, Lester Young, Errol Garner, Thelonious Monk, Kenny Burrell
and many others made this tune famous.

It must have been around the year 2005, when I made this arrangement - but like some other tunes it had
to wait until these days, that I finally wrote the score/tabs and did the recording of it.

Hope you like my fingerstyle version of that great tune....

greetings from Germany
Gerhard
