Thaum1el Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Is the song Paisley Road West, which I love deeply, a Rangers original tune, or is it built on another song? I'm trying to see if I can find the chords somewhere to play it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkheadbear Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 The tune was taken from Number 1 Platoon mate. Im not sure if it was anything else previous to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coopermania Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 The maker of this video claims/states he wrote PRW (I wouldn't have a clue) Username gersforme, top right of screen. Click his name to go to his homepage. You can send him a message on YouTube. One of his comments: Thanks, I am sure most Rangers fans like you can share these moments. I am fortunate that my father is still with us and can share the song with me and my son Lyle. My 1st game was a bit before you 1968. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 It was WBD of TBO who wrote it. I love the song. It's a real shame the club won't agree to play in the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedell Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Having had a quick look, there's nothing to suggest that WBD and Gersforme aren't the same guy, mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

covenanter Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 It was WBD of TBO who wrote it. I love the song. It's a real shame the club won't agree to play in the stadium. The melody and guitar picking style sound as if they have been hugely influenced by Woody Guthrie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaum1el Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 I sent a quick message about the song to him, asking if I could be allowed to play the song privately and thus get the chords. I pointed out that just about every Rangers fan I meet love this song, as do I. It's smashing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
