Thank you. I'm glad when someone like you finds these.

these videos are a gift from god, man. so glad your transcribing them for those who can't learn by ear (like me) so many good songs in demos (or outright didn't get demo'd at all) which never saw the light of day any chance you could do the solos and fills in down in flames? that song never got a demo but it's my all time favorite vh song

That's great to hear. I was hoping there would be people out there that would appreciate what's contained in these, but I didn't know for sure. I was going to take a short break from doing the Ed vids to try to diversify a little. I'll definitely do more. Songs like Down in Flames I started to avoid because I found if the audio was already pretty rough, it would sound pretty bad in the final video after getting digitally compressed. Is there a (somewhat) decent recording of that song?

As far as full tunes go could I request She's the Woman from the Zero Demo. Thanks for these awesome transcriptions.

Thank you! She's the Woman is one of my all-time favorite VH tunes. I might want to do the Warner Bros demo version though because I can get those to sound a little better. Is there something about the Zero version that you prefer?

No, nothing I prefer. The Zero version is the only version I've heard. Just a super cool song. It really blew me away the first time I heard it. With a lot of the demo work showing up on later albums, I'm surprised She's the Woman never showed up later. Thanks for the work.@@JimbosGuitarPlanet

Ok, cool. Check this version out: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4WFs9SvZM-pkZM.html It's pretty close to the sound of the albums. I can't believe they didn't use it either, but if they did Mean Street might not have happened.

Do you have a lesson for the solo?

@JimbosGuitarPlanet

3 ай бұрын

I skipped the solo for a few reasons. It's not the kind of thing I would normally try to transcribe and learn, I would just wing it. For a video I don't think I would be able to recreate the sound without enough volume to get some feedback. I also think I've heard him play a more definitive solo on a different take.
