Blue Jade tab

[HarryBohay]

Hi everybody!

Does anyone have a TAB for Buddy Emmon's blue jade? I've been asked to play something for filming in a few weeks with piano accompaniment and I think this would work very well.

Here's a quote from the american forum that may help if you cant find the tab

you wont need any tab for this one if you think about it just a little, its in F work on your F positions with just strings 5&8 to begin with and well run your pockets of the F you will hear it for instance 1st fret strings 5&8 push just your A pedal then slide to the 4th fret A&F pedal level, then hit that then slide to your 8th fret with just pedal A. then on up to the 13th A pedal down and release it. you should hear what you are after by now its all working off your F positions same thing going back down slide back down to your 8th position A pedal hold that one beat then back to your 6th fret E's lowered thats still a F. now release your E level push A pedal down and release then go to your first fret A pedal down you are now on your 4 chord release that and push it again. you will or should by now hear your song. after you get used to these positions it will be easier for you to add to make things better. now this song has a Dm in it you have a Dm at the 8th fret BC pedals, you have a Dm 6th fret with E's lowered, and you have a Dm at the 1st fret with A pedal. play in these pockets as well. this will do you better than tab. for when you have to hunt a while and know its in the scales that with the chord you will remember things better. hope this helps and even though this may not be like the record it is in the chord structure of the song and you will hear the song when you play it this way.

Hi Harry,
If you have or know anyone with the 'Anthology of the Steel guitar' book by Winny Winston it's there.
There is also a preview on the web search, minus 2 pages (I have those copied). Check this out, and good luck

Being just a smidgen pedantic Jim, 'Anthology' is accredited to DeWitt Scott through Mel Bay Music. Winnie Winston's book is a different publication by Oak. Both wonderful tutorials.

Thank you Ken for the correction, my apologise.
You are of course quite correct, and they are both excellent books.
Iv'e been sitting here most of the day going through the many course books and other steel related tabs etc.before I part with them.

Regarding 'old age' Jimmy, you might find this article a little reassuring. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/652587 ... pensioners
