This songs sick to jam on. I like throwin in some minor pentatonic/blues scales w/maj 3rds and 6ths, it sounds good over the B-->E progression. You can play around with a lot of different scales. Jer-bear uses mainly B maj in my fav version 2/26/77 w/lots of tremelo picking. Love this jam!

I've been trying to fiqure out some of the target notes that Jerry seems to use in his leads here( old '77 versions). he seems to target 3 or 4 note repetetions and works them like a new years eve hooker. I can see that the song is certainly in B mixo, and i am guessing that the E mixo mode can be used for those E chord intervals. do any of you Jedi's have any good pointers i could use to put this together alittle better? Is it the the D# , E and F# for the B?. . anyway, any ideas would be appreciated as always.

I recommend checking out the YouTube video by the channel StitchMethod Guitar
You can just put in in the search terms, the name of the channel and then “Sugaree” and I think it should pop up or click this link:

He actually has a couple of videos about Sugaree but one of them is longer and that’s the one you want. I think it’s the longer one anyways and I think it’s master class in the mind of Jerry Garcia. And he breaks down some of the lakes Jerry uses one going from the five to the one. From the B to the E. . It’s a great video.
