Up On The Roof, The Drifters ,Instrumental Cover by David
Up on the Roof" is a song written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King and recorded in 1962 by The Drifters: released late that year, the disc became a major hit in early 1963, reaching number 5 on the U.S. pop singles chart and number 4 on the U.S. R&B singles chart.[1] In the UK it was a top ten success for singer Kenny Lynch, whose version was also released in 1962.
Hope you like my take on it, played on my Benson Blueburst guitar on the middle pick up.

Good afternoon Neville, nice one to play ,love the BT from RA, he also uses all the fretboard with his arrangements, makes for a better overhaul sound.🎸 There was actually some more notes Neville, at end on the tabs ,but the BT faded away, so I didn't put them in , seemed odd .😮 Thank you, pleased you enjoyed it .

Hi Jon, I like the Drifters songs, yes Rogers arrangements, he always uses a lot of the fretboard, like you say it sounds better. Yes we have had a bit of sunshine these last few days, been tidying my garden, and repairing my strawberries net frames , I have a big patch of Royal Cambridge strawberries, really nice.😊🍓🍓🍓 Thanks for listening and support ,till the next one. Cheers Dave.
