Hi All,

Who can tell me the used 6 up and downstrokes about the `Horserun `from Apache??

For example do I beginn a downstroke or upstroke on A3 , and then??

There are many of them, but I presume that you are looking for Johnny Flamingo, who sang the English version first.

I found in the meantime `Sonny James`and I will look at the name you mentioned Ulrich, thank you

Bye

Hi Freddy,

You are absolutely right with Sonny James. I made a mistake with Johnny Flamingo, he wrote the lyrics but never recorded "Apache" himself.
I am sorry about my error.

Best wishes,
Ulrich

PS. It is surprising in how many languages vocal versions of this song exist:
Sonny James - Apache [with English lyrics], 03-1961
Laila Kinnunen - Apassi [Apache with Finnish lyrics], 1961
Merino Costa - L’amour fait la loi [Apache with French lyrics],1961
Die Fellows - Der letzte Apache [Apache with German lyrics], 1961
Jose Guardiola - Apache [with Spanish lyrics]. 1962
Wilson Miranda - O Apache [Apache with Portuguese lyrics], 07-1963
Betty Jurković - Apaš [Croatian lyrics], 1963)
Waldemar Matuška - Den Bičem Prásk [Apache with Czech lyrics], 1974
Bjelleklang - Apache [with Norwegian lyrics], 1992

Also in french (with an italian accent) :



Orlando's sister Dalida was a big star in France.
