All American Alien Boy

[Chuck Curtis]

Does anyone have the tabs to Jaco's solo on Ian Hunter's "All American Alien Boy"? I've looked everywhere for it and can't find it. All I can find is Jaco's jazz stuff. If you haven't heard this, you need to...

I got a great Ian Hunter collection called Once Bitten Twice Shy. Includes 2 disks - a Rockin' one and a ballads one. All American Alien Boy is on there, also All The Young Dudes w/Ian guesting with Def Leppard live. On the ballads disk is a great tune, All Of The Good Ones Are Taken. I think Jaco is only on the one song. Check it out. Ian Hunter is cool!

Lazylion - I agree! I saw Mott the Hoople years ago and Hunter had the most dynamic stage presence that I have ever seen. If you like ballads, check out "Rose" on Mott the Hoople Live.

I transcribed that solo a few years ago. I doubt I still have it around. I don't think I even have the CD anymore.

From what I remember there was a lick from Teen Town in there, a cool thing descending in 6ths, and a descending pentatonic sextuplet thing.
