	GENERAL NOTES:
	- () Indicates full bend
	- [] Indicates slide, in this case with 3rd finger

	SPECIFIC NOTES:
	NOTE 1: This is one of Alvin Lee's trademark licks.
	After playing the first note (A) with the 3rd finger
	lay the 1st finger flat across the three treble strings
	slide then hammer the next notes.  It is a difficult
	lick to master but well worth the practice required.
	Rent the movie Woodstock and you can catch a glance of
	the fingering.

	NOTE 2: After playing the second note of this lick slide
	down with the first finger to the 5th fret on the third string.
