Mystery Train Solo Scotty Moore Elvis Presley

Here is my version of the tab to Mystery Train solo by Scotty Moore.  The key to playing this correctly is to not play the E at the 12th position. If you listen closely Scotty is occasionally playing open A's in the bass during the E chord. This is pretty much impossible to play to correctly the 12th position despite the fact that most transcription and Youtube video's play it that way.

Rockabilly Boogie Johnny Burnette Grady Martin

Sorry for the long absence. Here is the first solo from Rockabilly Boogie. This features a great Grady Martin solo. Check it out.

Interestingly here is a song on which Grady Martin played. Listen to the solo and you can hear him using a variation of the lick that starts on bar 3. Start just after one minute mark.

Elvis Presley and Scotty Moore Just Because

Here is the first version of the Elvis Presley rockabilly classic Just Because.  I did my best.  Corrections are welcome. Wolf Marshall's The Guitar of Elvis has a pretty good tab of the solo if anyone is interested.  It also has some excellent tabs of several other Elvis songs.
