>Yup. I'm around. Does anyone know of a good source for the tablature
>music for Gimme Shelter?
No, but here's a recipe -- I got this out of an interview with Keef in
Guitarist a couple of years back:
take one Fender Telecaster
tune to open E (E B E G# B E)
the intro and chorus use C#-B-A-E (9th, 7th, 5th, open)
the verse uses C# (9th fret) and F# (basically, move your
fingers around the 11th and 12th frets)
Listen to it a few times and maybe you'll get a feel for it. But the
open tuning is essential.
