Here's a bit of Leo's Lost Tab from days long gone: "Anyway" tabbed by the
great Jim Jarrell.

Gentlemen,

Unlike Open Country Joy, I'm a little more comfortable
with this tab.....primarily cause its in open D and its
a slide tune......makes tabbing a lot easier. Charlie,
you need to work on your slide....sure a lot easier
than trying to figure out "Jesus Maria"!!  :-)

This tune sorta confirms what Dave was talking about
regarding use of first string for slide....especially the
2 to 4 move on 1st string...basic Open D slide (open
G.. its to the 5th fret). At the same time it also shows
Leo's use of lower strings for single note lines...
especially on 12 string.

I have no clue who wrote this (maybe listed in Bruce's
page but I haven't checked) but it's a melody from way
back and not a Leo original...I don't think...sounds too
familiar. This *thing* has a *real country* flavor to it.
Kinda smacks of Nashville steel guitar playing.....
I can see a 1950's sock hop in some Texas high
school gymnasium with the pony-tailed girls and
white socks and loafer boys slow dancing to this.
I think Leo has a little more red-neck in him than he's
generally given credit for....after all, he lived in Oklahoma,
Montana, etc. His covers of Tumbling Tumbleweeds and
several others are prime examples again.......IMHO.

This is simple yet hard to play all at the same time.
Charlie...this is a good one to work your slide on.
Unlike many of Leo's up tempo slide tunes, this thing
requires some real precision with the slide to make it
work...otherwise it sounds like a hound dog (or Bassett)
howling at the moon (ie my rendition). You gotta be
dead on with the slide and there are many notes with
slide were vibrato is *not* in order, ie. you got nail it
dead on.
Be honest with you.....I tabbed this out a couple years
ago....I haven't given it a QA....hope its okay....worked
back when.  Don't play it alot...fact is...I don't really like
it that much!  No matter....again, no pride of authorship.
You see something wrong please let me know.

Dave/John.....now that ya'll done Ice Miner....this leaves only
one tune left to do on Kottke/Fahey/Lang LP (is that the
name of it...always get order of names backwards....betcha
Charlie will set me straight if I'm wrong!).  Forget name of
last tune (Red and White something) but you said you were
working on it?
