HonkyTonk Blues

Post by Judy »

Ok, I'll try it again....maybe I'll be lucky this time...

Is there somebody out there in the pedal-steel universe who can help me with a tabulature of the steel part of "Hony Tonk Blues" in the version from "Pirates of the Mississippi". - I'm fakin' it somehow but I would like to play it right.

THANX!

Hi Judy; do you have sound clip of that part you want? I haven't heard it; but if I can hear it, I can help.

This is way I think I played it back around 1923. I don't have the recording either, so this is strictly from memory. I don't know how close it is. Hope it helps.

Hey Ron; didn't you see the tab above?
Or are you wondering if it's goin' on the "Rebel and Ricky" site? Hey Harold did you send that tab to Graham(Rebel)? Maybe we just forgot to send it up to the site. I'll send it up and should be on next time Rebel gets on here.
