This is the last song on 5 Man Acoustical Jam, and just shows you what a good tune you can make with completely nil technical difficulty. Tommy tunes normally, and Frank plays slide with open E (EBEG#BE) tuning. Brian's bass line is VERY repetitive, but utterly essential. The final (That's all folks) section I have transcribed with Tommy playing chords, and Frank playing lead, but since it's quite tricky to play the lead with a slide on your finger, Tommy could well be doing it (and I'm imagining the chords). Decide for yourselves. I apologize for any confusion Tommy's part may cause-I have written some bars as chords with the rhythnm shown, and others with full tablature, and others still with both. I know it's very unconventional, but it's both lazy and complete , giving both the notes and the rhythm DOWN FO' BOOGIE - Tesla --------------- s = sustain/hold Frank's Part: (Swing) w/slide + + + + + + + + E-+-- -+-----------------+-------------------| B-|-- -|-----------------|-------------------| G#|--7 Bars Bass+ Drum Intro-|---------------6/|-8-----------------| E-|-- -|-----------------|---8-8---------8/|-| B-|-- -|-----------------|---------8-----8/|-| E-+-- -+-----------------+-------------------| + + + + + + + + + + + + +-----------------+-----------------+-------------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-------------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-------------------| |/12--------------|/5--/5--/5-------|-------------------| |/12--------------|-----------------|-------------------| +-----------------+-----------------+---------------5/+-| + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------| |-----------------|-------15--------|-----------------|-----------| |-------10--------|---15------15----|-------------8-6-|ssssssss---| |---10------10--10|/15--15----------|---8---8---------|-----------| +/10--10----------+-----------------+/8---8-----------+-----------| Solo 1: ---3---- + + + + + + + + + + + + +-----------------+-----------------+-------------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-------------------| |/8---------------|/12/12-12--------|/5-----------------| |-----8---8-------|---------12------|---5-5-5-----------| |-----------------|-----------------|-------------------| +-----------------+-----------------+-------------------| ---3---- + + + + + + + + + + + + +-----------------+-----------------+-------------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-------------------| |/8--7--6-5-------|-----------------|-------15--15------| |-----------------|---5/9-----------|---------------15--| |-----------------|---------10------|---3---------------| +-----------------+---------------10+-3---3-------------| + + + + + + + + +-----------------+-------------------| |-----------------|-------------------| |-----20----------|-------------------| |/20----20----2018|---181820sssssss---| |-----------20----|-------------------| +-----------------+-------------------| Verse: Improvise quietly for 16 bars (it's not tough!)
