STORMY WEATHER-it keeps raining all the time for my favorite students!!

Artist: arr by Wocky Steele for the Freo Rabble for instruction onlyComposer: Music by Harold Arlen, Lyric by Ted Koehler Copyright: 1933 (Renewed 1961) EMI Mills Music Inc. All rights reserved. GoChords.com

Notes - You will see unfamiliar symbols. ^ means Major. In this case a major 7. A delta sign is an accepted alternative

Lower case letters are notes, usually melody notes and I mean them to be strummed or plucked. You will see Ab7/g and

and G^7/D. Ab7/g is a dissonance to give the Ab7 a "bluesy" sound. The G^/D should be written with lower case d

It could have been written G^ad5 because it is the 5 of the G scale. If you have problems with other things

ask me to explain. The double size diminished boxes will take time but try to get them. They are fantastic !

Now here is an introduction. Play this song bar by bar then line by song. Be patient and you will eventually get it right!

I cnnot play it as well as I would like yet. It is just fresh from my head................ wocky.

(slow arpegg) single strum and hold to end

Written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler the song was first recorded by Ethel Waters in 1933. She had sung it at the Cotton Club that same year. Its diverse history is demonstrated by some of its public exposure: In 2011 Koehler's original hand written copy of the lyrics with a painting he did was valued at $50,000 to $100,000 in an Antique Road Show on a US TV show; The song was featured in the film "All about Eve" in 1950 and featured in the 1970 Frederico Fallini movie," Amacord". The song has also been used in financial circles to call investors' attention to a volatile market ! A current value of the original chart plus art has not yet been estimated....... enjoy it wocky steele.
