It's not easy beeing (Lloyd) Green

Post by Alex Cattaneo »

I put together this condensed version of Lloyd's Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain. It's basically note for note what he played on "Ten Shades Of Green"... you know, minus the tone and the touch, ha ha ha! And this is at 100 bpm, and he recorded the song at 120bpm. Still working on it, but this is my best effort so far:

Hopefully some of you can give me some constructive criticism. I know this arrangement seems simple enough, but to play a nice full-bodied ballad with flawless tuning is, for me anyway, a bigger challenge than doing fast pick-blocking single-note runs.

For those interested in the tabs and backing tracks:
