Dhobi Ghat (Mumbai Diaries)

Free audio download of this performance on SoundCloud.

While I don't know too much about this film -- it was released internationally in 2011 as Mumbai Diaries. (At the time of this writing, it's actually on Netflix.)

However, Dhobi Ghat is the one of the best Gustavo Santaolalla soundtracks that you, mostly likely, have never heard. I can't believe I only discovered it recently. There are lots of pretty, singular guitar motifs. It's very reminiscent of his work on the films, Brokeback Mountain and August: Osage County.

The guitar tab for this piece is beautifully written across 2 pages. I recommend Munna Falling In Love with Shai for intermediate guitar players and up. There are some barred positions that will be quite difficult for beginner guitar players. I hope you enjoy playing this as much as I do. Enjoy, the guitar tab is available below:
