Too much 'noodling'. Also, he varied from the original arrangement too
much. ;-)

I've accepted my lot as a guitar-solo philistine. Throw some rock & roll
chord-bangers into the basement and I'll stay out of your sight.

For best results, skip to about a minute in.

Another $(*% video that's incompatible with Tivo. <sigh> I'll PC it, but
only because you were once a Posse member.

My result wasn't "best" by any means.

Do people actually pay money to hear them perform that way?

Brilliant!

Listen also to track #2 - Freddy Freeloader on the
same album.. It's a Miles Davis tune.

He tunes EADGCF which forces him to rework
all chords, but once done it lets him transpose BOTH
along AND across the neck.

Is there anyway to tell which YouTubes will Tivo?

Their style usually results in cease-and-desist letters.

Thanks. I didn't know the specific tuning he uses.

He's also an advocate for music therapy.

Only Tivo knows. Presumably, they've assigned one of their techies to hammer
this nail alongside a Youtube techie.
