Airproofing Ii by Leo Kottke

Tabs

This is a reissue of a classic Kottke tab by www.guitarmusic.org's
webmaster, the venerable Bruce Head. I've done nothing but formatting to it.
Enjoy!

Well, you guys asked for it (some of you anyway).

Finally, attached is my attempt at tab for Airproofing II. It's a DOS ASCII
text file so I hope you can read it. There's about 14 pages of tab in all...
I tried to send it within this e-mail but it was too big for my e-mail
program to handle! :)

BTW, I heard back from Richard Gilewitz (I asked him if he had any Leo
anecdotes to share). He left me his number so I'll have to give him a call.

Airproofing II
By Leo Kottke

Transcribed by B.A. Head, 04/06/96

>From *A Shout Toward Noon*

This version transcribed from the "Home And Away" video and a taped
appearance on *Austin City Limits*. Thanks to Dean Gaudet's "Airproofing"
tab for getting me started.
======================================================================

This is one of Leo's most energetic and challenging tunes in terms of
technique. It will take some time and practice to master. It sounds
absolutely great on a 12-string tuned down one or two steps (makes those
bends easier!), but Leo has also played it on a six-string. I hear he's even
played it on a nylon-string classical guitar! One section of this song was
originally recorded as a completely different tune (I think it's buried
somewhere on the album "Leo Kottke") which Leo incorporated it in the 1980s
into his original "Airproofing" (hence the "II" name of this tune).

I highly recommend that you get a copy of "Home And Away" and study how Leo
plays the tune on the video before you tackle this tab! It's best to
approach
this song in sections, mastering each one and then putting them all
together. The benefit of this approach is that you can improvise and change
sections around if you find some particularly difficult.

The main riff is the most recognizable part of this tune. It is played by
fingering an Chord diagramA7A7 chord using your middle (M) and ring (Chord diagramA augmentedA) fingers [see fig.
1], and then placing your index and your thumb simultaneously on the Chord diagramG+G
string, 2nd fret and low Chord diagramE MajorE string, 2nd fret [fig.2]. Your index finger and
thumb lift on and off the frets, which helps to mute the open strings and
create the rhythmic kick.

You may find it difficult to get this riff sounding the way Leo plays it,
particularly on a six-string. I'll break down the main riff into sections.

The bluesy bass line is played as shown below (I'm just showing the bottom
two strings here). The bass line is played exclusively with the right-hand
thumb. The left-hand *thumb* is fretting the Chord diagramF#F# on the low E, lifting on and
off to allow the open Chord diagramE MajorE to play. This also has the side effect of muting the
open Chord diagramE MajorE after it's played.

A-------0-----------------------0---------------------------------
E------------2-----0-----2-----------2-----0-----2----------------
       T      T      T      T

Over top of this bass line, Leo is playing a drone note (an E, on the 2nd
fret of the Chord diagramD MajorD string), using his right-hand index finger, like this:

D---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2---
A-------0-----------------------0-----------------------
E-------------2-----0-----2-----------2-----0-----2-----

That's the easy part. Over top of this bass line and drone note, Leo is
"hammering" on the Chord diagramA augmentedA note on the Chord diagramG+G string, 2nd fret, using his left hand
index finger, and then pulling it off (well, he's not actually hammering nor
pulling off -- he's putting it down quickly and then taking it off again --
but this is the best way to show it in tab).

G---0-------0h2p0---0---0h2p0-------0h2p0---0---0h2p0---
D---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2---
A-------0-----------------------0-----------------------
E-------------2-----0-----2-----------2-----0-----2-----

The important point is that he's not actually *plucking* the note with his
right hand (well, he does sometimes but we won't get into that now). He uses
the index finger on the 2nd fret of the Chord diagramG+G string in effect to *mute* the
open Chord diagramG+G that was plucked a moment before with the drone Chord diagramE MajorE on the Chord diagramD MajorD string,
2nd fret. This muting happens just as the left-hand thumb comes down on the
low Chord diagramE MajorE string, 2nd fret. However, by hammering down on that fret, he's also
sounding the note he's fretting -- but he's not emphasizing it. This is what
it sounds like he is playing on the bottom four strings.

G---0-------2-------0---2-----------2-------0---2-------
D---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2-------
A-------0-----------------------0-----------------------
E-------------2-----0-----2-----------2-----0-----2-----

However, it won't sound right unless you add in the proper timing and
muting. Listen a lot to the recording, that'll help. BTW, Leo starts off the
riff by strumming up on the Chord diagramA7A7 chord with his index finger (i.e, from the
high Chord diagramE MajorE to the low Chord diagramE MajorE).

E------------------------------------------------------------------
B---2--------------------------------------------------------------
G---0-------0h2p0---0---0h2p0-------0h2p0---0---0h2p0-------0------
D---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---2-------2------
A-------0-----------------------0-----------------------0----------
E-------------2-----0-----2-----------2-----0-----2----------------

By patient with it...start slowly at first until you get the timing and
muting right. Once you've got the basic groove down, then you can do what
Leo does -- emphasizing different notes with the right hand fingers (e.g.,
sometimes Leo actually plucks the Chord diagramA augmentedA note on the 2nd fret of the Chord diagramG+G string).

Having said all this, I have to point out that I actually don't play the
riff exactly as I've explained it. I simply play it by feel and it sounds
pretty much like what Leo is doing. What I've explained above comes from
analyzing Leo's playing with the frame-advance feature on my VCR. Once you
get into the groove of the tune, it really doesn't matter if you play it
exactly the way Leo does...just get the bass line right and the rest should
follow.

Good luck! Any corrections to the tab (all 14 pages) are most welcome.

           This is a syncopated bass. I've approximated what Leo
           is doing here. Leo also plays some of the treble
notes
           with his thumb as well as index finger.
