About to dive into the world of steel, and would like to learn the great blues classic "Love In Vain", will play a resonator square neck, so tuning will be in G Major. Thanks

Can't help you with tab, but I can point you to a couple of good sources:

1) Arlen Roth has tab and music for an open G version in his "Traditional, Country, and Electric Slide Guitar" (1975) on Oak Publications (ISBN 0-8256-0162-2), and

2) Scott Ainslie's "Robert Johnson: At the Crossroads, The Authoritative Guitar Transcriptions" (1992) Hal-Leonard Corp (ISBN 0-7935-1093-7). This one's the Real McCoy if you want Johnson's version.

Thanks Steve, do you think I could pay it some night at "Sue's Lucky Strike" in Elko?

Ha! Sure - I'm sure they'd let you play, but I doubt you'd get any 'play for play'...

Oh - wait a minute....did you say PLAY or PAY because if you said the latter, the outcome would be totally different!

Wow, was that somekind of Freudian slip or what! "I've never been to Elko, Honest honey."
