Subject: RE: Help: Phil Ochs Intro to I ain't marching any From: InOBU Date: 01 Feb 00 - 04:53 PM Hi Phil: He does, in one or two recordings on the guitar, on one studio recording it is played on a sqeeky harmonica, sounding as if it is meant to sound like pipes, It does sound nice on Uilleann pipes. He kind of picks it stacatto like... Hey Joe! You named after our brother murdered by the State of Utah, Nov. 19, 1915? My will is easy to decide For there is nothing to divide My kin dont need to fuss and moan Moss does not cling to a rolling stone. My body? Ah if I could choose, I would to ashes it reduce and let the merry breezes blow my dust to where some flowers grow Perhaps some fading flower then would come to life and bloom again this is my last and final will Good luck to all of you, Joe Hill Best of luck

Subject: RE: Help: Phil Ochs Intro to I ain't marching any From: Phil Cooper Date: 03 Apr 14 - 10:31 PM Phil Ochs started with a g chord shape. The individual stings he picked started with the B String on the third fret going to the B sting on the first fret to the open B string. Then he went to the G string and worked his way down never going past the second frets. When he starts the song he just plays the chords and does bass runs. |
