TAB/Notation in Guitar pro and PDF formats, as well as my backing track and reference recording for this second, deep dive into the haunting and dark stylings of Marc Ribot and Tom Waits. We delve deeper into the sounds that inspired Marc, as well as adding influences from some of his contemporaries; Bill Frisell, Jim Campilongo etc.

Stick around to the end of the video for some tone and gear talk too ;)

Hi Alex - I hope you remember me from years back. I left for a while when a had a hand injury. I was installing a faucet in my house and I pulled some ligaments out of my left digital finger. In any case I've been going back over some of your older lessons and I really like this tune. Marc Ribot lessons are my fave! Adios amigo

Alex Farran Guitar

Of course I remember you Michael! Glad to hear you're on the mend now after what sounds like a really painful injury!
