Looking for tab on Robben Fords 'Talk to your Daughter'
The overall line is fairly easy to understand but some of the incidentals are a bit hard to pick for my ears so I'm looking for tab on this tune to get the perspective of another set of ears.

Any help appreciated.

Same here. I have troulble in the same areas of ear training. Sometimes it's the simple stuff that eludes me. Aggravating.

Another Robben Ford tune does that to me "Start it Up"
Simple yet, there are some unexpected notes in there...

Glad to hear I'm not the only one

I can just make an interperatation and play what I think it is but I prefer to learn a song properly before developing my own version.

I feel this helps to see and learn new things but also gives me a better understanding of where the bass player is coming from.

I have a chart for this tune that my bass teacher once copied for me. It is in notation, but if you can't read, it must have been written for someone who couldn't read because under each note is the location to play it. I know the tune from hearing it live, but I don't really know if the chart is the Robben Ford version, but I would guess that it is. If you want me to scan it so you can check it out, PM me. Or if you want to ask about specific parts, let me know and I can tell you what it says for those sections.

If you do end up scanning the sheet for Talk to Your Daughter. It would be great if you could email me a copy as well. PM sent with my email address.

Thanks
