Here's a shot at it. No attempt at getting the timing to the recording right, that will have to come later, just trying to get the notes and the licks together.

Hey Boyd, I'm glad you brought this up. The guitar is there to serve your voice, not the other way around. When I want to play Robert Johnson songs, I use a capo and sometimes...

Mike, there is nothing new in guitar playing. Revoicing standard chords is a way of saying the same old thing in a different way. To make a song flow, keep practicing it until you...

Thanks for the compliment Charlie. Once you master your right hand thumb, there's no way part of Piedmont picking that's can hide from you. Guy Davis

Hello Andre, I may have turned the guitar volume down by mistake making it less distorted but that was not intentional. Cheers, Duke

That's good Ian, let me point out when you do the decending chords E/B G dim the next chord should be B7 before going back to E7. Keep up the good work! Duke

Another error I've been meaning to mention is the last chord, which is labeled as a Bb7#5. It should be a B7#5.
