Here's yet another - All along the Watchtower - me singing and 1st and 3rd leads and czyfingers rippin it up pretty good on the 2nd lead - This and all the other clips on this page -

I'm guessin a few of you (at least!) are saying 'Uncle!' by now. tehe

By no means Bill. Keep 'em comin' as far as I'm concerned. The Scarlet in particular has proved quite helpful for me. My version differs a bit from the original, particularly in the intro and in btwn verses. I've always had trouble with
Bobby's intro so I bastardized it and combined it with Jerry's part. I've been jammin' along w/y'all for the last coupla hours and been pleasantly surprised that what I came up with actually fits (w/ a bit of tweaking).

In Watchtower what position or transposition are you playing for the chords? I'm playing my acoustic and can't quite peg your transpos, as I usually play an open Am and barred G and F. And FWIW not only does czyfingers rip the 2nd but you rip the 3rd too bro.

As a lone ranger out here in the wilderness who finally has a fast connection at home I'm stoked on what yer posting. Lots of fun playing along with y'all. In lieu of musicians sitting next to me this does me well. Thx again.

Man I can't wait to get back to the good ol' USA. 55 days and countin'.....

Hey hg - glad we're a little bit of an oasis for ya. We're playing watchtower a step up from you - Bm-A-G

I'm messin with some stuff during czyfingers lead - strum pattern and leaving out the A a couple of times to name a few.

Thanks for the compliments. If it's got some redeeming qualities and isn't a train wreck, I'll likely post it.

ah that would explain my pendejes...thought my guitar was really outta tune even after checkin' it. With that in mind I'll try and follow and follow you there in czyfingers solo.

I have a coupla other questions,but I'll PM you later. Thanks again bro. [/i]
