Song:      Kwame (African)
Author:    Martin Taylor


This Tab is worked out from the Four Martins Guitar Nights DVD
where Martin Taylor demonstrates his African drum based guitar
style using a book of matches (or card) at the bridge to slightly 
mute the strings and give an African drum sound. It is based on
five drums and he begins with the first, then adding the rest in
one by one to build up to the full song. It is only short and
pretty much a party trick - enjoy...
