That Girl Over There - Ralph Chicorel

[Danchic]

This is a song my dad wrote. On the second time through when it's supposed to go back to the top, it does for only 4 bars and repeats back to measure 1 when it should be going to measure 5 on the way to the B section/2nd ending. I can't seem how to fix this!!! Any help with it would be appreciated.

Does this play as you want?

That Girl Over There 1 (issue W Turnaround ) 1 - Ralph Chicorel

Form:
IN, AABA the form plays twice, taking the coda the final time.

I revised the spacing, removed the Segno, DS instruction, final repeat bracket and added rehearsal marks.

When sharing songs of your own composition, if you could include a link to either an audio file or YouTube, your original chord chart would have some context for others

Hi Bob, it does! I'll have to study what you did. Because for the life of me, couldn't fix it. I'm trying to figure out how to upload the song, for context. Thank you!

That odd unintended repeat of the 1st 4 bars of the A is probably the player's way of responding to instructions it doesn’t understand. The unnecessary final repeat bracket and Segno / DS instruction may have conflicted with the 1st & 2nd ending Volta’s. Form repeats are set by the player repeat setting. Using DS al Coda will include the coda as part of the repeating form.

Danchic,

In the bridge, are those the correct bass notes under the series of G minor chords?

Cheers,
Jer

Hi Jerry. Thank you for feedback. Im attempting to send the lead sheet so you can see for yourself. Though I can't figure out how or where to do so.

[Danchic]

By the way Jerry. I enjoyed listening to your music on your website and want to circle back to hear again. Regards - Dan

That's a really fine compliment, Dan. Thanks very much.

And thanks for the lead sheet.

Since it doesn't specify the bass notes for those the three Gm chords, if you want to put the moving notes from them in the bass they would be Gm/G - Gm#7/F# - Gm7/F. And you could continue the bass progression by putting an E in the bass of the next C9 chord.

It's a nice romantic tune.

Cheers,
Jer

Thanks, Jerry. I'm trying to figure out how to upload Dad's tune here (it's stored on my other Mac/iTunes) and more of his music online for free. You can find some on Soundcloud.com either under my site (dcjazzguitar) or possibly under his name Ralph Chiocrel. If interested of course He's approaching 90, still composing/recording. He's made over 15? Albums or CDs. And two musicals. But mostly for family and friends these past 20 years. I'm trying to change that awareness while he's still with us If you Google Ralph Chicorel, you might find some interesting tales about him. He was in a lawsuit over the copywriter of Strangers in the Night back in the '60s. He wrote a tune called You Are My Love. I'd love for you to hear some of his stuff, knowing your taste in music, I'd be surprised if you didn't love his stuff

Thanks again for the suggestions, duly noted and will look to check it out.

As soon as several of your dad's tunes are iRp charts, I’ll start a Ralph Chicorel songs thread.
