Felix Pappalardi - For Yasgur's Farm

[bassnuzzle]

So... I'm a big fan of Mountain. Or atleast their first three albums... I couldn't find any tabs for this, so I thought maybe I'd give it a shot... I wouldn't mind some feedback...

well, damn. that turned out looking pretty bad....

 

[SturmUndDrang]

Good effort bro. Keep at it. Here's one I did in notation a while back.

I was trying to be nice but the tab is not very good. Too bad a troll popped up in a thread about Felix. bassnuzle, if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help.

If you can't read the version I posted in standard notation, I'd probably have to tab it for you to see all the differences. For starters, the opening phrase is D, C#, B, A, G#, F#, E for the first bar and the second bar is a whole note, F# on the second fret of the E string. After that it's hard to follow your line. There are notes on top of each other that shouldn't be and way too many notes on the 11th fret that don't occur in the song. Also you missed many changes in the progression like the part that goes from D# to B to D natural and then E natural. Overall it seems you need to work on your ear training.
