Great little intros...

Unread post by sbhanot » Sun Jun 22, 2003 10:08 pm

Hey all - I really enjoy songs with nifty intro's centered around the 7th through 11th frets - for example - Jack Johnson's "Posters" and "Rodeo Clowns" and Dave's "Jimi Thing" intros - I'm wondering if anyone else knows any intros which have the same feel as these. For some reason these intros really stick with me.... Let me know if you know of anything or if you haven't the foggiest idea of what I'm talking about :)

Just off the top of my head:

Ben Harper: I shall not walk alone
Led Zeppelin: Ramble on
John Mayer: Your Body is a Wonderland, No such thing.
Dave Matthews: Everyday

Unplugged - eagles hotel california


the whole song is from 7-11 basically, and the 2 intros are sweet before you can even tell what song it is, I am in the process of perfecting them now.

when you are up there (Jimi Thing) you are just working some note in an E progression...E and A progs while muting are best when you are that high on the neck...
