I first heard this on a performance Chet did on Autsin City Limits years ago. I was lucky enought to have a tape in the VCR so I recorded it and figured it out. Took a while!

One of Chet's original tunes, and one of the more accessible ones to boot. In drop-D (low E tuned down one full step to D)

Recorded on my OM-05MT with K&K mini direct to my PC.

Thanks for hosting this for me, Orsino!

ps. I had posted the tab earlier in this thread, but thought I'd record it on my hog-top and re-post. Recorded in one take due to time crunch, so you get the botched notes and all. Hope you still find it enjoyable.

================================================
Update: Never mind - I tabbed it out myself. A buddy wanted it so I just took a couple hours this weekend and knocked it out.

If anyone wants a copy, send me a pm or email with your email adderss and please specify the desired format: text or Guitar Pro.

Great slow tune with lots of open ringing notes and muted strings to set tone and rhythm.

================================================

Any one know where I can find it?

Thanks!
David

Bump. I updated original post, then realized it wouldn't get seen without a reply.

I sent the tab via email to all who requested it. I think. Smile If you didn't get it let me know.
