Great job, Pete.   [smiley=beer.gif]  I'm still trying to get through the intro at speed without making a mistake.

I'm having to re-learn the lick on bar 10 because I originally learned the one Clapton plays on his version.  Griff's makes more sense but it's a pain to un-do something once it's locked in.  Keep at it, you'll get it.

When you say Clapton's version what do you mean? is this a variation of a song I'm not recognizing?

...but also listen to the intro on Strange Brew from the Disraeli Gears album. When you're done there, listen to this version of Lawdy Mama. A lot of recycling goes on in this business! :)

Smokin' Pete from Memphis Way! :)

I just started woodshedding this about a week ago - am about halfway through (am right before the lead starts in the middle) and just listened to your rendition - you're sounding GREAT buddy!

I'm hoping to play this in early August so I have the hit practice HARD between now and then to have it down as well as yours - thanks for the inspiration!  :cool:
