Don't Bogart ...

Post by Joerg Schubert »

Hi all,
has anybody a tab for "Don't bogart" by "Fraternity of Man" from the Easy Rider soundtrack. I'm not even sure about the key because at least on my copy this song is not based on 440Hz.
I've heard the rumours that Red Rhodes played the PSG on that track?
Thanks
Joerg

Ya wanna see something funny.

Get a copy of Buck Owens "together again".

Sync up the steel break on both "together again" and "don't Bogart that Joint" and let em go.

No hard to amagine where the "Bogart" song got its inspiration.

Joerg-

I don't have it tabbed, but here's some more info that may help:

Yes, it's Red Rhodes on that track.

The song is in the key of E (although it does sound like it is a little flat of 440hz. Just move your bar a little to the left of the fret to play along with the recording.)

The intro:
Begin with the bar off of the stings.
Pick strings 3-4-5 at the same time.
Step on BC pedals.
Bar at the 2nd fret, with BC pedals.
5th fret, pump on and off of BC.
7th fret, pump on and off of BC.
7th fret, AB lick (rocking onto A-pedal).
5th fret, open
7th fret, open
7th fret AB.

Much of the song is played in the 5th and 7th frets, with plenty of BC pedal thrown in.

Hope that helps.

Hi Tucker,
thanks for the info, yes that was exactly what I was looking for. Mostly my confusion was caused by the tuning other than 440Hz. I was not sure if I have to use the 0 fret position (what I normaly try to avoid) or start on 1st fret.

The position and pedal usage hints are of great value for me. I gonna take some program that's able to detune an MP3 retune the song to the key of E (based on 440Hz) and try to figure the licks out.

Thanks
Joerg
