Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (*)
Track title: Bett's Dance
Album: Toy Balloon (and Live at the 12 Bar)
Tuning: DADGBD
This is a really nice instrumental. Bert plays it using a "double dropped D" tuning, which
is basically a drop-D with the addition of the 1st string tuned to D also. I tabbed it in
a quarter-note based beat (notes are triplets), which was easier for me but my non-musically
trained mind suspects that it should be some kind of eighth-note beat. Doesn't really matter
anyway, as you'll probably want to work with the record to get the feel down. There are some
parts which should be strummed (you'll see) but I tabbed it as best I could nonetheless.
Experiment with fingerings as there are many possibilities - for instance, I couldn't make my
mind up whether the first note of the main riff was an open 1st (as I tabbed it) or 3rd fret of
the B. Some places it sounds open, some fretted. So make your own mind up. It's tabbed up until
just before the last repeat of the theme - then there's some improvised noodling at the end which
I didn't tab. The live version is very similar with a few small differences. Have fun! :o)
Rhythm: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4 (various!)
