Jimi Hendrix
Album: Hear My Music
Title: Gypsy Blood
- One of Jimi’s slower and shorter compositions. Nevertheless, it’s still just as sweet
as all his other songs.
- As far as all my tabs go (except for one Filipino song and Acoustic Alchemy song), I
rely on the time of the original mp3 file for accuracy. So I suggest using Winamp and
an mp3 file of this song to actually ‘relate’ to this tab.
- If you don’t like tuning down your guitar a half step lower than the standard tuning,
I don’t think you’re ready for this song. IMHO, this attitude goes to show that your
atrtitude towards guitar playing is still not yet enough, since a guitar tuned a half
lower can mean a whole different world of guitar
playing, hehehe.
- Oh, also, if anyone out there could also give suggestions on what I could tab next,
in the lines of songs similar to Jimi’s of course (I’m currently hooked on tabbing his
awesome works) that would be swell! Anyways... here it is.
Enjoy!
