This song lends itself to using the loop station. I haven’t tried using my octave multiplier to add a bass part to the loop but, I hope it will work.  I noticed that measure 69 and 70 should outline an e minor chord rather than an F# chord.  Just move those 2 measures down a whole step (2 frets) and it will sound a whole lot better.  There are probably repeats further on in the piece but, I haven’t looked for them yet.

Name That Tune

This is a name that tune.  Unlike your usual bass part this is the melody and you get to play it and try to guess what it is.  If you email me your guess at bobstone@boscoden.com I’ll tell you if you are right.

Won’t Back Down

I have this song with tabs because Scott liked to read tabs.  The notation is still there and unlike every tab with notation I’ve ever seen this one has all the notes agreeing with the tabs.  That’s because my notation program automatically creates tabs.  If you’re new to reading notation this is a good way to start.  It’s easy to play, repetative and if you look at the notes as you play it you’ll learn to recognize them.

I found this midi file at this link

It was originally in E but, I transposed it to D.  I think Crosby Stills and Nash used a capo to bring the guitar part up a whole step but, I have enough of a problem hitting some of those high notes so, I’ll just do the guitar part without a capo.
