You're most welcome, Mr. Tripp 
By the way, as you probably know, the C/E means
a C chord over an E root. The D- is a minor chord.
I had originally written D-13, then I realized it's D-11. Cheers,
-John |

Austin, Check out these changes for "At E's."
Emmons based "At E's" on Barney Kessel's "Barney's Blues." On the front of the second verse of "At E's", Emmons quotes a Charlie Parker phrase from Parker's "Now's The Time." Cannonball Adderley used this quote on Monk's "Straight No Chaser" from the Miles LP "Milestones." It's possible this is where Emmons first heard it. "Barney's Blues," "Now's The Time" and "Straight No Chaser" are all available on iTunes. "At E's" is on "The Emmons Guitar Co." and "BE Live in St. Louis" both available from the SGF. |

Robert Kramer,
As a lesson to me in chart reading, could you explain what the handwritten markings on this chart indicate? Thanks in advance. |

Dale, I should have provided a key for these chart symbols. This is a chart for the rhythm section to play back this song. I try to keep charts as simple as possible. A soloist can then add any notes or chords above these basic chords.
b means flat (b7 in C = Bb)
# means sharp (#1 in C = C sharp)
m means minor (2m in C = D minor)
o means diminished (#4o in C = F# diminished)
In the first line (4 #4) with the line underneath indicates a four beat measure with 2 beats for the 4 chord and 2 beats for the #4 diminished chord.
The X above the chord number means the music stops until the next chord.
The diamond around the chord number means the music stops but sustains until the next chord.
In the sixth line of the song there is a diamond with a line after it extending over the next chord. This means the diamond sustains through the next chord.
On the tag, R.T. means the music retards or slows down.
The 4 diamonds with a line underneath indicate a measure of four beats with one beat per diamond.
The two diamonds with a line underneath and the two slash marks above indicate a 2/4 bar (a measure with with only 2 beats) with one beat each for the two chords numbers.
The last note of the song (a one chord) has a birdeye above it indicates the note is hit and sustained like a diamond. The triangle after the 1 chord means the chord is a 1 Major Seventh (C Maj7)
I couldn’t figure out the chords Emmons was playing on the Tag so I indicated the bass notes he is playing with his thumb. I think it will work if your bass player plays these notes. I’m going to go back and try to figure out these chords.
If you want to e-mail me I will send you a scan of this chart. Writing this chart gave me a reason to go back and listen the the "Black Album" again. This music never gets old.

| Austin, It is confusing - I still can't play it at tempo. Although I charted the arrangement off the "Black Album," it's easier to hear the changes on the "Buddy Emmons Live 1977" version where the piano and steel comp the chords and there's more solos. The Fender bass player is especially good on the live cut. "At E's" could be called an altered blues with a bridge. |

I didn't bother about the bridge, kinda forgot about it actually, but just for the record, I couldn't improve on Robert's take on it. It's completely logical.
There was a thread about the chords for the bridge on the forum many years ago, and Buddy made some comments on it. I'm not sure if I could find it now, but I remember the relevant comments on it... and once again, it kinda boiled down to what robert wrote above.
Robert continues to be a very interesting guy.
