GHOST BLUES - Rory Gallagher Slide Guitar Intro Transcribed by Mike Bremford
Tuning : Open E (Low to high E B E G# B E).
I'm using: ~~ To mean vibrato 5/8 To mean play 5, slide up to 8 and play 8 (5)/8 To mean slide up from 5 to 8, play 8. (But dont play 5) 5/(8) To mean play 5, slide up to 8, but dont play 8. /10 Slide up to 10 from a few frets below \10 Slide down to 10 from a few frets above 0h1 Play open, hammer to 1 3-/-5 Long slow slide from 3rd to 5th.
This was an absolute nightmare to transcribe to computer... Its real hard to get the correct feeling accross, so Its best to listen to the recording. The arpeggios that the intro finishes with are suspect... they are my approx- imations, but they have the right feel. The part labelled fast on the TAB (start of line 2) is probably played differently than this, but the notes are right (This was the first time I played slide learning this intro, and this seemed easier then.) You have to LISTEN to the recording to get the timing and volume of the notes right, although I've tried to indicate that. Wear the slide on your little finger, becuase at one point he plays normal notes with the rest of his fingers. On a lighter note (Ha! Note. Geddit?) its a great intro, and sounds *groovy*.. Enjoy!?! Cheers Bigears.... Mikey
