crush question

Unread post by paywad927 » Fri Mar 21, 2003 7:09 pm

the last 2 chords in the verse (3xx4 , 5xx5) dont sound full when i play them. are there any alternate chords i could play to give it a fuller, more authentic sound?

good job tadder, thats esactly how i've always played it, cause that is how it is in the tablature book (not that those are always right)

I said before that I play Crush this way, but I realized that it's not exactly the same.

I made a tab for someone to show the exact way that I play Crush, try it out...I am not sure if Dave actually plays it just like this, but I think it sounds much better than what is on this site. Here:

http://www.angelfire.com/wa3/billywesto ... sh_Tab.doc

***Here are the audio clips that I made for each of the sections. They are in .wav format (before I discovered Cool Edit), so they aren't that great of quality...

Verse:

http://www.angelfire.com/wa3/billywesto ... _Verse.wav

Bridge:

http://www.angelfire.com/wa3/billywesto ... h_Lady.wav

Verse into the Chorus:

http://www.angelfire.com/wa3/billywesto ... chorus.wav

Tell me if there are any problems...

That's great thanks. Do you play both jams the same as here?

yeah the jams are definitely right..., except for the mutes that are in between the chords
