Topic: songbook and downloading in chordpro format

Hi folks. Just tried to add songs to my songbook and the only thing that happens is I end up at the forums list. Is this feature broken? Am I doing this wrong? There is only one link I can find and it says Login - add to song book.

Is it possible to download songs from here in Chordpro format? This is the full reason I am here. Want to create a huge list of songs to play, and jam to.

Thanks.

I use the view icon, select the eye icon, then copy -> paste to a local program, which is ok for singular songs, but if you want a whole swag, you're better off getting something like the OLGA archive, available here: https://archive.org/details/olgaarchive - the problem you will hit with that (as I did), there is lots of really bad versions and lots of songs (and bands) you've never of ... then you need to weed out the junk ...

Good luck!

Cheers
