Buford Chapel Breakdown.pdf

For ADVANCED INTERMEDIATE and fearless INTERMEDIATE players: a PDF tab for Gussow's instrumental composition, "Buford Chapel Breakdown." The three-page tab is an exact transcription of Gussow's performance on KICK AND STOMP, his debut solo CD. (You can purchase the entire album at the URL below. The individual cut can be purchased at iTunes and Amazon mp3s.)

This lesson is ideal for more advanced players who are looking to broaden their approach. It has a fair amount of repetition, thanks to an in-and-out gospel chord pattern.

Technical challenges include lots of 2, 3, and 4 draw bends; a number of rapid slurs (a pro's trick); and, notably, a handful of 5 and 6 overblows.

Harp key: Bb in the original, although you can play it on other harps.

Note: an instructional video focused on this song is also available for $5. (In the video, Gussow takes you step by step through every lick, breaking down the challenges to make them manageable.)
