Notes

Studio recording, 1983-1984 for 'Couldn't Stand the Weather' album. Main riff section. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this track's rhythm/riff part. Vibroverb was SRV's primary studio amp for this era.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate to advanced blues rhythm skills, including fast shuffle picking, dynamic muting, and precise articulation to capture SRV's percussive and touch-sensitive style.
