You Don't Know Me

So earlier this summer, when Paul Callicoat started sitting in with us on bass, we realized that his learning curve would not be so steep if we took the time to write out chord charts for some of the less familiar Flood tunes. Well, that project turned into a pretty cool new features for the band’s website, one we call “the freakin' first-ever Full-Fledged FLOOD FAKEBOOK.” From time to time, a regular listener of this podcast will want to play along with that week’s online tune, and this new feature can help. To use it, go to the website — 1937flood.com — and click on “The Fakebook” option on the left-hand column. There you’ll find a list of four to five dozen Flood tunes. Just click on the title of the song you’re interested in and up pops a page of chords for that number. And you can try it out right now, using this song from last night’s rehearsal. It’s Michelle’s rendition of the great Eddy Arnold number, one that brother Ray Charles had a huge hit with in 1962, “You Don’t Know Me.”
