However there are a few mistakes..... Corrected Vsn: JOE'S BLUES =========== Written by Jake E. Lee Here is the tablature for Jake's acoustic solo on Badlands' 'Voodoo Highway'. For those of you interested in finger-picking, this will be an excellent workout. Notice how the moving bassline can create the illusion of two guitars. BTW, don't try playing this with a pick unless you can adapt it for hybrid picking. Pay attention to syncopation and dynamics ie. know when to play loudly and when to play softly.
