Eighth of January
Traditional
Tab and notes by Aaron J Woolley
Title - Battle of New Orleans Tab
I play this in C position with the capo on the second fret.
Like 'Fishers, it requires lots of pick movement making it a pretty good right-hand exercise.
The pic- up bar is a hammer on, The trick here (I think) is to keep your first finger anchored on the 'C' note (2nd string) for as much of the A part of the song as possible.
Bar 4 sounds good with pul- offs etc. The rest is pretty straightforward...(Just fast!) Notice: *Part B* is split here for ease of reading (1st time and 2nd time).
