thebrig Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 One Weekend - Dr Feelgood For the life of meĀ I just can't work out what notes are being played in the intro, my ears tell me its G E C D GGCBG DĀ but when I play along with the song, it just doesn't sound right.Ā š I've just formed a new DrĀ Feelgood tribute band and haveĀ learn't 37Ā songs in just a few weeks without any problems except for the intro on this one.

chris_b Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 It doesn't help that they screw up the intro, but they play the same line without any fluffs at the end of the verses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it IS a "pink torpedo up" at the beginning then? I thought it might be, because for the rest of the song, what I play sounds fineĀ š 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewDad Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 G---E--- | C---D--- | G---C--_ | G--D_---Ā hyphen = picked underscore = ringing C is below G on bar 2 and above on bar 3. In the 3rd bar, where the guitar plays a B note and bass plays C, this seems to imply a rootless inversion of D7/6 where the guitar plays the 6 and bass the 7. Unusual, but that's Wilko for you. Just remembered who I lent my copy of Down By The Jetty toĀ in 1978. Time to track himĀ down... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much for taking the time to post thisĀ video for me, it was really bugging me because it should have been so simple to work out, which I suppose it is really, but I just had a mental block on this.š¤ Once again, many thanks.š Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
