Where do you go to find the sheet music for little known songs? For example on last Friday's Hope for Haiti Now, Dave Matthews & Neil Young performed their rendition of Hank William's Alone & Forsaken. I've found the song's words and chords online, but would must rather have the sheet music. I can think of a dozen or so other songs that I'd like to find the sheet music for too. Any idea of where I should look?

Richard: As a start perhaps you could identify a few for which you are looking.

Try musicnotes.com, Richard. I've downloaded a few sheets from them... usually $4.95. Haven't used them for a while but if I recall correctly they email you a link so that you can download a .pdf file. I just did a Hank Willams search and there's plenty of stuff there.

Peter, these are some of the songs on my wish list:

Alone & Forsaken - Hank Williams
Ramblin’ Man – Hank Williams
Just To Spend The Night With You - The Derailers
When It's Springtime In Alaska (It's Forty Below) – Johnny Horton
Premonition – John Fogerty
Long Black Veil – Lefty Frizzell
Ballad Of Thunder Road – Robert Mitchum
Weather And Water – The Greencards
32-20 Blues – Robert Johnson
Long Way From Texas - Lightnin' Hopkins
I Don't Hurt Anymore – Hank Snow
Runaway – Del Shannon

While a couple of theses songs (including Alone & Forsaken) are available in compilation books, I didn't want to buy the entire book to get one or two songs. But then again, I may have to in order to get what I want.

Howard, thanks for the link.

I use http://www.freehandmusic.com and http://www.sheetmusicplus.com regularly. Freehandmusic has Alone & Forsaken as a single download for $3.95.

Thanks Todd!
