CHORDS AND TABS PAGE - LOTS OF HITS ON SOME SONGS
By: Rich Miller Date: February 25, 2016, 8:44 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Hey Walt I was just looking at the chords & tabs page and we
have some songs with over 1000 hits and Telstar with over 4,000
hits. Must be lots of guitar heads out in their garages working
out these tunes.
Can you give us a list of the top 10 or 20 hits?
Rich Miller
PS - A big thanks to the late Bill Kestell for charting these
Venture tunes and making them available to us all!!!!!!!!!!!!

Walt if you look at the chords and tabs pages "10" of them you
can see how many "VIEWS", or "HITS" per tab. Which gives you a
pretty good indication of how many geetar players are hopefully
trying yo master the Ventures tunes.
Can you scroll through the "VIEWS" and perhaps make a list of
the top 10 or 20 viewed songs to see what the Ventures fans
clamor for?
Thanks,
Rich Miller

I second Walt's reply Rich- nice job.
Being retired like you, I often get 'nudged'
the same way by the main moderator. He
really keeps me on my toes.
In fact, I just posted (day in advance) this
year's 'song suggestion' list for all the 'fest
jammers.' Check it out. Plenty of 'rather
interesting' non-Ventures material.

Hey Tom the "Great Prognosticator" drafted me. I was actually
expecting it to happen.
Some very interesting songs. Now what would be really
interesting if you had some way to track what country, state,
city in the world the "views" were made from. Might give a truly
international scope to the web page.

Outside of playing a 'mean' lead guitar,
that's what he does 'best.'
'Exact' locale' on the various views would
truly tell a story but 'sadly' not possible,
at least in this instance. Again 'kudos' on
what you did accomplish!
