Transcriptions

Maybe some of you have come across this site before.
Lots of free transcriptions and my European friend was nice enough to invite me to share one of my own.
The Albert King version of Born Under a Bad Sign. Have at it and enjoy the groove.

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Checked out a couple, very accurate.

Loved the Marcus Miller transcription. My son will be back from camp on Monday, he'll be especially happy, he's a big Marcus Miller fan.

Here's another Duck Dunn line. (sittin' on) the dock of the bay.
There's a funky thing Duck plays at the end of bar 43. Those are two 8th notes each preceded by grace notes. They should share a flag at their stems but it was hard to write because of the distance between the notes on the staff and the grace notes. I play it by sliding up to the A from the G on the E string with my index finger and then sliding from C# to D on the G string with my pinky.

You know, Johnnie Walker red ain't so bad on the rocks. Apparently Churchill used to drink it.  I think RVZ might be trying to say moderation is key here. Either way, it's a damn fine funky bass line for a rock band wonderfully executed by Mr. Ed King.

A bonus track from the same album.
