Here is a real simple opening lick (and I mean simple!) but I think
you might be surprised at how nice it sounds......I like it anyway.
Its the opening to 'Sleeping my day away' by Disneyland After Dark
(D.A.D)

You need a real twangy guitar sound with louds of reverb, If
you have a bass guitarist handy get them to whack out the notes
A, F and D# in a quarter beat feel, you guys can probably work out
where the changes are.
Oh yeh it is played fairly slowly (moderate?)

Re .4: Jaydot - we ARE european!!!
A short lesson in geografi: Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark
are all european countries, located in northern EUROPE, also
called SCANDINAVIA! But what the heck, I could propably manage
to place Alabama in California as well...;^)

| What about the Baton Rouge song...... Doesn't anyone know the opening
riff to "Walks like a Woman ?" I know for a fact the same question was
asked in 1940.? and was never answered. (Only because I asked :^) Some
one must know that song.

This is the whole of the He Man Women Hater riff which I started to
enter in another note, but I've lost it!
BU = Bend Up
p = Pull off
(n) = pitch note to be bent to
AH = Artificial Harmonic (or pinch harmonic)
/ = slide note

| In case anyone else thought the guitar hook on Michael Jackson's
"Black or White" was as great a hook as I did:

D --- 11
B --- 09
G --- 09 E
D --- 09
B --- 07

| Interesting notation style, Dave. Took me a minute, but I like it.
Gives more of a graphic representation for chords then standard tab
does.

| re: .14 (Buck)
Same notes just different strings.
There are two comping techniques that I often find hard to
distinguish - one is where you play on the lower frets and
pick above the fret board, the other is just playing higher
up on the fret board.
They give you similar sounds - my version lends itself toward
the former, yours to the latter. Some folks might find mine easier
to play becauase there are no adjacent strings to worry about on
one side.
And by the way, I incorrectly transcribed the E
It's:
E ---4
B ----5
G ---4
Not (as I had posted):
E ----5
B -----6 E
G ----5

| re: .15 (G_HOUSE)
Yeah, I'd given some thought about how to post transcribed chords
and I sort find that the most useful because not only does it give
you string and fret, like most other techniques, but it also gives
you the "shape" of the chord as well.
Glad to hear that other people like that method as well.

| Might not be the right place, but that wont stop me 8^).
I have always had trouble playing one of the standard *cliche*
licks, and I figure it is time to get it right.
It is the start of the solo for Roadhouse Blues and it also appears
in about a bazillion other rock songs.

You know the one, it is like a triplet feel.
What Pick direction do you guys use? or do you do it with pick and
fingers? Is there a better position to play this in (this fingering
would go over a E blues progression)
Any help would be appreciated (especially by the punters at my
gigs 8^).........)
P.K.
