Level: 3/4
Tuning: Dropped D

A funky R&B tune composed by the great Booker T Jones (of Booker T and the MG’s) arranged by John for solo fingerstyle guitar. Essentially a 12 bar blues progression but with an intriguing model turnaround. It incorporates an ‘illusory’ bass line while the melody is being played at the same time, achieved by the use of a percussive right hand technique. There’s also an improvisation section which incorporates Bert Jansch-eque ‘rolls’, doubled up bass notes and piano like ‘sixth’ harmonies. “What I like about this type of tune is that it has parts with a steady bass and a top line, It’s really pretty” says John.
