Official WASHBOARDS Tablature & Sheet Music »
Song: The Space Between This And That
Band: The Washboards
Album: Lambastics
Tabbed by: Craig G Telfer
A strange country-funk mixture described as "The sound of Nirvana Unplugged
making a cake with Southern folk-blues and swamp-funk with a twist of mellow
indie while Happy Days plays in the background with Fonzie singing the Sound
of Music" by guitarist Neil C Campbell. Here is the tab:-

End On C (A3)
There is the whole song. Sometimes parts are added (their bassist does this
live on stage) but this is the whole album tab. Listen to it first to
understand how to play this correctly. Also listen to how the bassist plays
parts of the verse: he slaps it. I play it with my thumb and index finger, a
la Mark King from Level 42. It gets the job done.
If anyone has any comments, complaints or "fumblin' tha plumbin'"
techniques, e-mail me on charlatan_3@hotmail.com
Thanks, my little droogies.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official WASHBOARDS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
