2318.0. "Sheet music for SLEEPWALK ?" by TLSE01::SAAD () Sun Sep 08 1991 13:40

    Thanks to this notes conference, I discovered SLEEPWALK by L. Carlton !
    Beautiful piece of guitar. A good demostration of :
    
    		simplicity + feeling = great music.
     
    Does anyone out there have the sheet music? (Basically I need the
    chords and the bass part). If so, please send me a mail and I'll send
    back my postal address.
    
    Thanks 
    William - DEC Toulouse - France

2318.1Santo and JohnnyLEDS::BURATIFender BenderMon Sep 09 1991 14:087
    SLEEPWALK was originally recorded by Santo and Johnny in the early
    60's with the lead played on steel guitar. The music might be
    available as such.

    And yes, I agree, it is one beautiful piece for guitar. I was about 8
    years old when I heard it and it completely blew me away.

    My band does the Larry Carlton version (which I like a LOT better than
    the orginal - much more interesting chords).  I sent William a chord
    chart.
    
    	db - who wants to play Terry Trotter in the movie version of
    	     "The Life and Times of Larry Carlton" (I'm assuming here
    	     that I have no chance of getting the lead).

I haven't heard the Larry Carlton version, but Jeff Beck did a stunningly
beautiful cover of this song, available on the Porky's Revenge soundtrack.

    I'll say. I thought I needed an eye exam when I read that. WTF?!

re: Porky's Revenge

This is the third in the Porky's series of movies. (I don't know the names of
the other ones, I've never seen any of them). Dave Edmunds was hired to create
the soundtrack for Porky's Revenge. (Dont' ask me why!) 

Dave assembled what I think is one of the finer soundtracks in rock history.
Fabulous Thunderbirds, Jerry Lee Lewis (w/Stray Cats), Jeff Beck, George
Harrison (which was his first release in like 10 years), Willie Nelson, all 
sorta people are on this! Check it out if you can ever find it - its worth it 
alone just to hear The Crawling King Snakes (Robert Plant, Phil Collins, and
Dave Edmunds) doing "Philadelphia Baby"! Awsome stuff!!!

    Just for the record The Shadows did a rendition of Sleepwalk way back
    when. Actually, I've never knowingly heard it. Due to the rave reviews
    this 'tune' has received here maybe I ought to make the effort.

    The latest Stray Cats album "Choo Choo Hot Fish", I think, has a
    damn good version of SLEEPWALK.
    
    Personally I think the Santo and Johnny version is the best I've heard.
    
    No matter how much I like The Shadows I must say that their version
    lacks something, I can say this about most of their covers. Their early
    original work is far superior.
    
    For the Americans (most of you) The Shadows are similiar to The
    Ventures but better and still around, just.
