Too Rolling Stoned

I spent a little time learning some of the riffs from the second solo on Robin Trower's Too Rolling Stoned. Most of these riffs are pretty simple, but his phrasing is really impressing me. There's a little bit that I'll have to write about that really illustrates that. Just writing down the individual notes, it doesn't look like much, but the combination of bends and vibrato really make it great.

I tried to write this out tonight using tabledit, but failed miserably because, while I'm good at figuring out the notes, and how to play the bit correctly, I am terrible at figuring out how to do the timing part of the notation. So I spent ages fiddling around without getting it.

It's great stuff to play though
