The Black Crowes Song Title: It Takes One To Know One TBC Original? Yes Written By: Chris and Rich Robinson Recording Session: Unknown Record: Never Released Live Debut: 07/12/2006 Shows: 11 times played live Notes: none at this time ------------------------- Tuning: EADGBE This song made it's debut during the summer 2006 tour, and as far as I know, as of now is no studio version. This is what I could come up with based on the best quality recordings I have of the song (with two different lead guitarists, but the parts are similar). 2006-09-27 has Chris (who played electric guitar) and Rich Robinson totally audible, Paul Stacey is nowhere to be found on the verses/choruses, while 2006-07-23 sounds like mic was placed in front of Marc Ford's amp. There's a lot of improvisation on every part Intro (Chris): E-----------------------| B-----------------------| G-----------------------| D-----------------------| A------2--2-----2--2-2--| E--3h4------3h4------0--| Verse Riff: Chris E-----------------------| B-----------------------| G-----------------------| D--2--------------------| A--2--2-4--5-4-2-----2--| E--0-------------3h4----| This can be heard relatively clearly on the 2006-09-27 recording.
