In the Beginning, there was Jane’s……
I’m sorry, Pete, but I think you were a little bit off w/BCS. My old
band used to play it, but considered it too commercial to defame Jane’s
by playing it live… broken into sections, this is how I play it…

have a blast w/it and remember, play it your way, and play it sloppy,
you can’t be precise and scientific w/ Jane’s and have it sound natural.
If I’m wrong about this semi-transcription, feel free to blast me,
but keep in mind… have you ever seen two people play «Blackbird» the
same way…?
