Subject: TAB:Orange by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion

This is a tab from one of my favorite bands.
I hope you enjoy it, and I hope I did it right.
Please email me any corrections.

I've worked up part of Afro from Extra Width, too.  If anyone is
interested I can finish it.

Orange
from the album Orange
by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
transcribed by Ira H. Bryant IV
(ihbryant@mailhost.ecn.uoknor.edu)

I can't tell the words from listening.  If anyone figures them out,
please email them, and I'll post it all together


This is my first time to tab fancy stuff (hammer-ons, pull-offs, etc.)
I used the standard conventions from the archive as such:

----p5----|  pull-off to fret five
----h7----|  hammer-on to fret seven
--8b(9)---|  play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach the
             pitch of fret nine
--b(9)8--  play fret eight already bent to the pitch of fret nine,
             releasing until it reaches the normal pitch of fret eight

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion has 2 guitarists (one sings, too.)
I arranged this for one, but I'm afraid it jumps around the fretboard
some.  If you figure out a better way to play it, (other than with
two guitars, of course) please post it.
