The Brother (for Jimmie & Stevie)
Robben Ford the Blueline
Transcribed by Miguel Bioque

The original song is in Eb (maybe it's a wink to
Steve Ray Vaughan?) I have transcribed it ½ tone up.
If you want to get that funky-jazz style don't forget
to play with the CD (Robben ford anf the Blueline) and
using, most of
all, the first and the little fingers!)
