A short bigraphy of Pete Drake below. It lists a few of the major hits on which he played. http://tinyurl.com/l7sld ------------------ |

OK, Thanks for the info friends.After getting the heads-up on Pete Drake I found a site that said yes it was PD that played on the song. He didn't say if it was E9th or C6th,but it dosen't matter.Ive got it nailed on E9th.Thanks again..PJ |

Definitely E9. Here's two ways I fake it: Progression: A, C#m, G, Em 5th fret open, 5th fret drop the E's....slide down.....3rd fret open, 3rd fret drop the E's. Strings 4, 5, 6. Or 10 fret AB pedals, 10th Fret A pedal....slide down......8th fret AB, 8th fret A. Strings 5, 6, 8. Engage/disengage pedals and levers to taste. This will give you a somewhat reasonable facsimile of that famous reverb-drenched intro. [This message was edited by Chris LeDrew on 08 May 2006 at 05:50 PM.] |
