Echoeing Gilewitz Written: Leo Kottke From: A Shout Towards Noon Transcribed: Charlie Weidhas Notes: This is a pretty simple tune with the only tricky part being maintaining the open 5th and 6th string drone pattern. (Of course, sounding like Leo is not simple!!)
There is no muting of notes that I can make out. Let the strings ring out with sustain. Listen to the CD for timing as well as some slide nuance. Some assembly is required: Pass #1: A A A A B B C C D D E F Pass #2: A A A A B B C C D D E F Pass #3: A A A B B C C D D E F G G G G H Tuning: Open D Part A -------0-----0------------ -----0---------0---------- ---------------------- ---------------------- -------------------------- -------------------------- Part B -------0----0--------0---0-------0---0-------0---0--- -----0--------0----0-------0---0-------0---0-------0- ------------10-----7-----5-----1-----3-----0----- ------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- Part C -------0---0--------0---0-------0---0-------0---0---- -----0-------0----0-------0---0-------0---0-------0-- ----------------------------------------------------- --12-----9-----11-----7-----5-----2-----4-----0------ ----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- Part D -------0---0--------0---0-------0---0-------0---0---- -----0-------0----0-------0---0-------0---0-------0-- ----------------------------------------------------- ---9-----5------7-----4-----5-----2-----4-----0------ ----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- Part E -------0---0---------0----0-------0---0--- -----0-------0-----0--------0---0-------0- ----------------------------------- ----------------------------------- ---0-------------------------------------- ---------0-------------------------------- -------0----0-------0---0--- -----0--------0---0-------0- --------------------- --------------------- ---------------------------- ---------------------------- Part F -------0---0-------0---0---------0-----0---------0----- -----0-------0---0-------0-----0---------0-----0------- ------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- Part G -------0---0-------0---0---- -----0-------0---0-------0-- ---------------------------- ---5-----2-----4-----0------ ---------------------------- ---------------------------- Part H -------0---0-------0---0---- -----0-------0---0-------0-- ---------------------------- ---5-----2-----4------------ ---------------------------- ---------------------0------ -------0---0-------0---0---- -----0-------0---0-------0-- ---------------------------- ---5-----2-----4------------ ---------------------0------ ---------------------------- -------0---0-------0---0-------0---0-------- -----0-------0---0-------0---0-------0------ ---------------------------1-----------0------- ---5-----2-----4-----0-----------2-------0----- -------------------------------------------0--- ---------------------------------------------0- End Hello, Just to let you know, the tune of Echoing Gilewitz was actually written by Richard Gilewitz and is contained in the full composition titled Echoing Wilderness. Leo Kottke renamed the part of the song he recorded after asking permission from Richard. The record label made a mistake and gave Leo credit for writing the song. The transcript in tab is soon to be available in Richard's new songbook that is scheduled for release in the fall. Regards, Beverly Phillips Alligator Alley Productions
