Hello all, Sorry for the intrusion, but a buddy of mine has a large number of used CDs for sale and I am trying to help spread the word. I can vouch for his ...
Hi there... I'm not sure who might be interested or up for it, but I've just finished a transcription of the Gary Peacock tune "Empty Carrousel" from the ECM...
Well... I have the precise guitar and bass parts on the "head". The problem, (I'm having) is deducing what the chord is between what the guitar and bass are...
As odd as this seems; I thought I could scan images of the score and post them, however this doesn't work well as the image looks terrible and the notes aren't...
Ok.... In the files section I've posted my lift of the Gary Peacock composition "Empty Carrousel" from the Oracle record with Ralph Towner. I would like to...
Can anybody please help me out. I downloaded the Ralphs Old book "Improvisation and Peformance for acoutic ...... Guitar" that cesar funck made avaialable...
Dave, I have a photo-copy of the book if you want to borrow it. I live in Cwmbran, so if needs be, you can come and collect it, and return it. Let me know, and...
Since everyone is making requests for Transcritions: How about Jamaica Stopover or Spirit Lake (please no flames about how great it is to do it yourself!)...
Of the songs requested, I only have a transcription to Tramonto, but I'll upload that this morning to the Yahoo groups site under Files. Presumably this will...
Problem: There isn't enough space to upload a 460 kB jpg file with the transcription of Tramonto. If someone has a Website or FTP site where I could send it,...
You van post it there: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ralph_towner_2/ ... the transcription of Tramonto. If someone has a Website or FTP site where I could...
Greetings: I'm new to this group but also a long-time R.Towner fan. I believe I've bought all the 1970's & early to mid '80's Vinyl albums and also 'Open...
Welcome to group-- hope somebody can answer your music questions. "5 Years Later" is not on CD, unfortunately, at least as far as I know. RT does tour-- he...
... Let's see if I can help. Ralph wrote at least 3 etudes: Mevlana etude, Jugler's etude and Oleander etude. Jugler's etude is part of a three-piece solo...
Ariel: thank you. this is great news! I'll contact the publisher and hope for the best. And jeez, I have that *book* somewhere around here! now all i have got...
No, it hasn't been issued. While ECM has issued all but 70 of their regular series titles (give or take) on CD, this is one anomaly that doesn't appear to...
Oops, missed this one on last post. Yes, Ralph still tours, although primarily in Europe since he resettled in Palermo, Italy a number of years ago (while he...

I'll be seeing Ralph on Monday. He'll be here in Oregon with Oregon. I hope to have a chance to hang out a little with him after the show. I'll send a review...
Last time I saw Ralph I mentioned this group to him. Of course he's flattered at the attention but I get the sense that he's not much a computer type guy but...
Re: [Ralph_Towner] 5 Years Later? Juggler's Etude, NimbusI used to think that Towner-envy was due to the extraordinary artistic inadequacy one feels upon...
Hello there, as a fan of Ralph's outstanding guitar performances for years, I've joined this group a couple of weeks ago and I really appreciate the postings...
