This one is too much for me

This is as close as I can get to what Mike Johnson is playing.

Need the help of a Professional here!

Can anyone put me out of my frustrations.

Such wonderful playing




Here is the lick at 1 minute

Thanks for any help.

Sounds to me like he walks up to V chord(F# in B) on 9th fret,8th fret A+B with 4th string lowered, fingering 5431 then slide to 7th fret. Mike often uses variations on this sometimes raising 1st string as he resolves. That's my take,what's yours? JS

John

I have been saying recently to lots of folks, the Forum is full of players who have lots of Knowledge and are willing to share, for free!

I have been offering my humble tab free, to those who ask for it and have been rewarded and proven right, by help from John Swain here.

Thanks John

Ok, JR and John, I actually moved my steel into the same room as my computer for this (I really need to get a laptop - I usually like to work from CD's and when it's something on youtube I have to keep the notes I hear on my PC in my head and then run across the hall to my steel!). With an extra note here or there and based on your work, try this:

Thanks once again for your help.
It's folks like you on the Forum, that illustrates, the spirit of the Forum. I know I am right about that at least.

Hey! you know how to fly Helicopters. Get a Drone and use it to do the leg work, between The PC and The PSG.

Nah, better still, get a 10.1" tablet.

No, not a pill, an android Tablet Smile

Great playing by Mike, as always !! I love watching these classic tunes sung my great singers like John, even if I cant play them exactly like Mike, its fun to watch and then try to duplicate. Thanks for posting that video, now back to the steel for more work ! Smile This forum is the best !
