KUBAN BOB - "the cheater" Tablature

Official KUBAN BOB Tablature & Sheet Music »

From the liner notes to the _Look Out For The Cheater_ LP:

There's a big hullabaloo coming from MUSICLAND, U.S.A.! ... and it's
all coming from BOB KUBAN AND THE IN-MEN, the most exciting musical
sound to come along in all my eight years as producer and emcee of the
"St. Louis Hop" television dance show.

BOB KUBAN, leader of this big-band sound, is a young, handsome
instrumental music instructor at Bishop Du Bourg High School and is Du
Bourg's first winner of the much coveted _John Philip Sousa Award_!

Here's the inside on the IN-MEN: GREG HOELTZEL, a Washington University
student, plays the organ; MIKE KRENSKI, St. Louis University student,
is bass player and composer; brass and reeds are expertly handled by PAT
HIXON, HARRY SIMON, and SKIP WEISSER, all attending St. Louis Institute
Of Music; talented KEN SMITH is lead guitarist; and, according to the
girls, lead vocalist [Sir!] WALTER SCOTT "sings adorably!" [AWR: Bob
Kuban played drums - AWR]

This album contains some of the brightest sounds I have heard in this
new generation. I know you'll appreciate this fresh, long-awaited
versatile group -- they'll be musical stars for years to come!

P.S.: The IN-MEN and their producer, Mel Friedman, asked me to make
public their gratitude to Al Bussen, skillful sound engineer,
Technisonic Studios, Inc., St. Louis.
