This chart takes elements from Duke Ellington's East St. Louis Toodle-Oo and the Allman Brothers' Whipping Post and creates the written-out effect of the modern "mash-up". There are direct metric juxtapositions (not modulations), but the overall pulse remains consistent. Consistent with Southern Rock style, there are two open sections in which two guitars solo simultaneously; rhythm sections are encouraged to change their approaches to each section. There are extremes of range in most parts--the lead guitar part goes to doulbe high D at the 22nd fret. This chart is difficult but is a proven crowd dazzler.
