[two versions] Explanation: Dancing Days ~~~~~~~~~~~~ / x Slide up to x \ x Slide down to x (x ^ y) Bend up, from x to y if notes are in parenthesises (x v y) Bend down, from x to y they are hit once. ([x] ^ y) Play y bent, [don't play x] (x - y) Pull off from y to x (x h y) Hammer-on from x to y ~~x,y Trill x and y ============================================================================ You need to remember that Jimmy Page has this "terrible" habit of recording a lot of guitar parts all together. I find this a real challenge to play one part that covers everything. Sometimes they are just differant sounds but the same part, or, differant parts combined to make a complex score. I think it is possible that all of this (EVERYTHING!) is slide, though I play it just picking. I have simply placed parts and labled them so you can put them where they need to be. ============================================================================ ------Dancing Days------
