Good question...

That is a cool song and it is picking up in popularity by getting more airplay!

John, Great job! ... Also, I noticed you tabbed it in G... The song on the CD is in F#. If you drop everything down a half you play the last part of the run using open strings. It looks easy enough on tab but getting the right feel for this run definately takes a little effort.
For me anyway!

BobG, thanks for the heads-up on that. I guess the working tape I listened to was a bit fast.

Hehe... I hit my neck switch, plastered a big smile on my face, and pretended I was Bobby Garrett
If I have time this week, I'll see if I can cop that solo and tab it out. It's got a very cool little tritone thingie right in the middle of it.
By the way, the audience reaction to this song was very positive !

John, I'm curious.. When you played this song "live" how are you guys covering the the Dobro fills in the first verse? Are you doing them on steel or do you have another instrument doing the fills?
I've got 2 weeks before my band will be breaking this song out.
For what it's worth i've been using the "Riff Master" alot on this one.
I, for example, can throw that ending run into a "loop" and play against it for as long as I need. And slow it down while maintaining pitch. It's definately a big help
when trying to pickup the subtleties of a particular run. And this particular run definately has it's share.

John , Is that what that is a "tritone". Some of the guys in my band was wondering how the song would go over in a club setting. Glad to see the crowd went for it !Thanks John , I hope you get time to get the rest of this great steel tune tabbed out. William

A couple of notes;
- This is written in F#, as per the recording. If your band plays it in G, of course you can crank it all up one fret.
- Would someone please identify the steeler on this cut; because I think it contains some refreshing ideas in an age where everyone complains about vanilla playing.
Hats off.
- BobG, although I haven't really organized my own part very well yet, I suppose I'll cop the dobro parts in the first verse with a Matchbro, if I can possibly get the lead player to back off for 5 seconds
- William, I'm not sure how serious your comment was about the tritone, but once you are familiar with them, your ears tell you right away that's what's going on there...which of course helps you to find it faster. If you would like one of my lengthy boring discourses on Tritones, just say the word
- Jim Bob, when you said "I guess I don't think that way", I meant to mention this as well; Much like finding the tritone subs easier when you recognize them by sound, the same applies to that bluesy feel of the ending lick. I'd be willing to bet the producer requested something "bluesy" there, which calls for 7ths, flattened thirds, and also flattened 5ths sometimes. The two most common positions for those sounds on the E9th neck are: Three frets above open position, with your A pedal down as the root, and 2 frets below the open position, with the 7th string as the root. And, if you look at that lick, that's exactly what's going on there.
I'd like Ricky or Jeff or somebody to have a look at that tab, and see if I've got it right, as I don't tab much E9 stuff.
And finally, my usual disclaimer: I'm not much of a steel player, and make no claims of knowledge of it... but I hope this helps.
-John

Hi John, You say you are "not much of a steel player" I don't know so much about that. The break in that song really moves, Especially the parts I think you are talking about as "tritones". Yes I would like you to discuss the "tritone" thing. I think everyone will agree that you did an excellent job on this tune. It really does express some different ideas that you do not hear everyday. Who the player is I do not know. Thanks again John , You are my hero as Jeff and Ricky are. You guys are great as this Forum is also. William Litaker

William, thank you, you're very kind. Truth be told, it will be a while before I can play this solo correctly, as I find my bar control is not up to snuff yet.

Thanks John , This solo is difficult not only for bar movement but also the picking style. I use a two finger techique on most speed licks. This lick requires the use of three fingers. More of a backward roll on the third fret , at least that is the way I have been working on it. Do you agree ? Did anyone ever come up with who did this on the album ? Thanks John for your work on this tune. I think we have pretty much disected the crap out of these licks ! I luv it though ! ! William Litaker Kannapolis N.C.

What were you doing on the E9th neck?

Couldn't you work a VII#9 in there?

Jeff, I'm not sure... a weak moment I guess. I've turned up in some wierd places lately. But I had a look at that there E9th tuning, and it has it's interesting points. I predict that someday it'll catch on, big time.
I've tried your e-mail suggestion, but I've been experiencing technical difficulties in confirming it.

We added this song this past Sunday at rehearsal. We kept it in F# which gives the lead guitar player a real workout as well.
There is a little easier way of ding the last lick of the song. The first part of it can be done on one string. Start on the 5th sting at the 12th fret. Slide to the 10th fret and then the 5th fret with some judicious pedal work.... It is a little easier this way and sounds the same. This is a fun song and a real finger tangler!
