Hey all,

I've tabbed out this song's harmonica part and I'm in the process of learning it. What I am seeking is the tabs for the guitar part so I can introduce this to my guitar buddy (who is a great player but still shy on the picking front).

Do any of the multi-talented players here have a copy of the tab or can give me some clues where to find it? I have a feeling it'll be fairly repetitive but I know the piedmont picking style is a little more complex than others.

Any help much appreciated, it'd be a bummer to learn the harp part yet not be able to play it as as a duo.

Here's the track:

When John died, one of the best living embodiments of Piedmont style guitar/harmonica duo left us as well!

Those of us lucky enough to hang with these guys at Augusta Heritage Blues Week over the years sure got an earful of classic music done right!

Hey Iceman, wow that must have been really something. Phil Wiggins is an amazing player too, really enjoy the upbeat style of this song.

I would suggest to your guitar player to have a fairly good foundation for this song and between both of you, make it your own. Improvise and jam. Good luck. - 99
