There are few classic Southern Rock tunes that I enjoy, and
this is one
of them. It's an awesome tune. I would like to dedicate this
transcription to Bruce Bryne, a former coworker, originally
from
Kentucky, who passed away circa 1997.
He was a spitting image of Duane Allman, and was also in a
motorcycle
accident that same week!
Bruce survived and had the scars to prove it.
He was a drummer in his younger years who's band once opened
for Heart,
who was also starting out in the early 70's.
Bruce was also a talented artist too. He drew for me SRV's
"In Step"
cover album in pencil, which hangs in my room to this day.
Many have asked to buy it; it will never happen.
Thanks for the memories, Bruce!
The song is pretty straightforward. Nothing major to note.
Listen to the song for exact rhythm of parts.
Notation: + = lower note full unison bend
(7)= note held
> = accent note
* = full bend
^ = pre-bend
