Baden Powell Discography & Guitar Tabs

UPDATE 12/2024 - See "Class Clef" for Tabs (Link Below)

All Album DL Links Dead w/ No Updates Planned

Baden Powell's discography, posted chronologically mostly in blocks, with updates as found. Most are rare and hard to find, so it's suggested you grab them all, keep these links alive.

Also, a site rip of the tabs from Brazil On Guitar, a Baden Powell tribute site, along with album tracks to match the transcriptions; note that a few album tracks are yet to be found, so a MIDI file from ClassClef is used in substitution, until the proper album audio is found. Tabs are assembled into a single PDF file with bookmarks. Also included is all of the tabs in PowerTab format.

New albums are added after Block 12. Then there's a  request area, seeking audio to match the transcriptions; if you have any of them, please post a link in the comments, thank you. There's also links to other interesting Baden Powell sites. Lastly is "Important Notes" for any new or added important information about this material.
 
UPDATED 1/2013: New song at Brazil On Guitar (La Marseillaise).
