SUMMERTIME BLUES - Ritchie Valens
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep in mind I'm barely 13 & started playing guitar less than a year ago. I
tabbed it based on the way Ritchie Valens himself played it at his middle school
concert recorded on The Ritchie Valens Story, a great CD. Feal free to e-mail any
comments to me. Thanx!
