Hoist That Rag (guitar solo) Written by: Tom Waits Guitar by: Marc Ribot Album: Real Gone Half-assed transcribed by: [email protected] I’ve noticed no one has really given this any shot on the net. The solo is in the key of Am. There are a few parts I haven’t tackled, the chord-jam at the end being the most difficult. I started it off, the notes are pretty dead on. The repeated motif [A] is an example of the notes. There are variations. So I hope this inspires someone to finish it off or add something. When you do, drop me a line. P.S. If anyone has a recording or any pictures from the New Years 06 Electric Masada show @ Tonic, let me know. Or any Ceramic Dog bootlegs.
