I am looking for help with "Back Door Slam" by Robert Cray. I know the little repeating lick that he plays in the intro/chorus but that's all I can figure out. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I have not heard Back Door Slam do "Back Door Slam" so I don't know how close their version is to Cray's. The bridge seems completelty different too. Maybe it's just me. jbmando July 16th, 2012, 04:52 PM It's basically Cm7 for the whole thing. The "B" part is F G Abdim7 G7 Cm7. For the F he's just chunking away on the G and B strings at the 9th fret. This video shows Robert's hands so you can get a good idea how he voices the chords. The Abdim7 is just a minor third slid down a minor third - AbCb to F Ab, then the G7 is the DF interval to the BD interval. It maintains the sliding minor third, but I believe the chord changes to G7 from Abdim7. A Cb sounds exactly like a B, but it is a Cb in an Abdim7 chord. Play it at xxx14/13x > xxx11/10x > xx12/10xx > xx97xx and it will be pretty much what Robert does in this video. _TCZifWKXNI |
