What songs are you interested in?  The group I'm in play Lee Williams, Williams Brothers and some Canton Spirituals. I haven't played any of Lee Williams new songs, but I know the last two CD's quite well.

Whats up bighenry and welcome to LGM! Are you working on the whole Lee Williams CD Good Time or just that song? I play a lot of Lee Willams and Canton Spirituals in my quartet group.

If any of you have some bass notes that you can share other than  "GOOD TIME" that would be a blessing to me.

This is how I play Can't Run off of the Lee Williams CD. In the key of B major........

B,F#,B,F#,E,C#,B,B,F#,G#F#,B  is the main riff

When they say you just can;t get by, I play this scalar walk down starting on the D string.

You- E
Just- D#
Can't- C#
Get- F#
By- B
