I love Hank's solo on the second half of the break to the Gram Parson's song Wheels as recored on Emy Lou Harris's album Elite Hotel . Does anyone have tablature for this great solo?

Cool album - had to pull out the ol' vinyl on this one - oh oh, I guess I'm showing my age. Thanks for reminding me of a great tune!

Here's how I hear the solo:

Thanks Mike. That is a great album isn't it.

My vinyl disappeared with an ex-wife...does anyone know if "Elite Hotel" is available on CD? Thanks.

It is indeed available in CD format
