(funk ending section of) "Ringo"
transcribed by Mike Matray
Transcribed from "Local Band Does OK"

When the funk ending to "Ringo" begins, the bass and guitar are
playing a D-E (as noted where the transcription by Jay P ends).
Next is the "Bunch of Crazy Animals" riff played lightning fast.
I think the easiest way to play that whole tone scale is like this:

Bunch of Crazy Animals whole tone riff (played 3x):
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G---------------------------4------------------------------------------|
D--------------------5--7----------------------------------------------|
A------------6--8------------------------------------------------------|
E-----7--9-------------------------------------------------------------|


After the whole tone riff, the band plays the funk ("Slim Knows the
Score...").
It is a three barre chord funk with a riff. Here is the funk
progression:

G minor > riff (below) > F > C  > back to G minor

funk riff:
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G------------3-3-------------------------------------------------------|
D-----3--5-------5-----------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|


The soloing that Jake does over the funk is in the G minor key,
Dorian scale.
Please rate for accuracy!
