BROWN SUGAR INTRO



There have been a few requests on the net for more "Stones stuff".

I presume that means "Keith Richard". I would like to contribute

with an attempt on the Brown Sugar Intro. In previous letters

tabulatures were presented with more complex fingering - without

retuning the instrument. The following is more straightforward.



N.B. Open-G tuning is requiered. Through away your lower-D string

if you are perticular about sounding like Keith does. X, Y, Z are the

10th, 11th an 12th position. In hex that would be A, B, C but confusing

to use.

I hope I got the timing right. (Too bad Emacs isn't connected to

/dev/audio and programmed to play tabulature...)
