FAF: Lord God Bird
Hello again, from this last Freakin Awesome Friday! This week we’ll look at the Lord God Bird. The song was featured on NPR’s All Songs Considered. There is a whole section describing the story behind the quest for the Lord God Bird and it talks about the song itself.
This FAF there also have a tab to go along with the song. The beginning has two banjo lines with the first one being the euphony. The second banjo is playing the accompanying piece in the background. The rest of the song is fairly straight forward. But unfortunately I didn’t write 'finis' to the ending. The tab ends at around 2:40 into the song. If it gets finished I’ll post the update.
So without further ado here is the excellent at a bargain price a fuss and the tab. Enjoy!
