I am sure I am not the only Steeler using an Organ Effect. In doing so am playing some Booker T tunes, one being Time Is Tight. On the long version the tune ends with a dynamic set of chord changes which I have figured out missing one or two. To describe the change it is when the tune in Key of C
goes to C minor then ? ,D, G, C m, G, Cm. Hope this describes the area. Thanks much for any help. PS I am using Line 6 Roto Machine for the Leslie Effect. |

| Great groove that transfers nicely to C6. Whether using an organ and/or Leslie effect or not (I use a RT-20), Time Is Tight remains a classic in my book. Since I generally play the short version, I can't help with the outro chords on the long version, but it seems like you're on the right track. |

Donny Thanks, that is the short version. On the long version I have come up with Cm, Bb, D, G, Fm, C, Fm(2x), Db, G, C
Gm, A, Dm, C F, A, D, Gm, D, Gm (2x) F F7, Db, Bm, (2x)
F, F7, Bb m, (2x) F, Etc. Many of these are 1 stroke, I feel this is close if not perfect, however it sounds great playing steel sound also. On the Booker T recording it is played with Leslie Fast Rotor Effect. Knowledge of 5th Cycle really helps when trying to analyze a tune such as this. |
