Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: Harlem Nocturne

Marty Tippens (mctippens) - 05 Apr 2004 16:18:34

The Ventures' fast version of Harlem Nocturne is on "In the Vaults" (volume 1 on
the Ace label U.K.)
The Ventures' slow version is on the album titled "The Ventures". It is there
second album.

The song was originally composed by Earle Hagen. The version I am
looking for is the one recorded by The Ventures. There are a lot of
versions out there, but all I can find are bass guitar versions of
the Venture's recording.... any help would be appreciated. Duke
Ellington did do a version, so did the Vis-Counts. Hagen's lead was
written for the Sax.... but I know there are guitar lead versions out
there. I had listened to a hometown band play what they called "The
nastiest song in the world without words," and that song was Harlem
Nocturne. The riffs were out of this world. If I had a copy of the
recording, I could probably tab it but unfortunately I do not.
