_ That one [Ab] song, Machine Gun, I felt [Eb] the power from Jimmy.
[Ab] I felt the [Eb]
vibes from Buddy, and I [A] just joined in.
[Eb] I remember sitting [Ab] there at Juggie Sound mixing with Jimmy, [Db] and the [Eb] thing that really struck
[Bb] me was this was [Ab] a fresh approach, this was Jimmy going back to his roots, _ [Db]
and [Eb] _ the [Bbm] [Ab] power,
_ [Abm] _
_ the emotional impact of something like Machine Gun, which [Db] to this day [A] still rocks most people's
boats.
It was a [Ab] political statement, it was a musical statement, and it's a sonic evolution,
if you will.
Using the sound of the guitar to make it appear as [Eb] if it were a machine
gun, I mean, that's just, _ _ [Dbm] it's a [Ebm] mind-blow.
_ _ [Eb] I _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Ab] looked out in the audience, as far as I could see, maybe 10, 15 rows, people [Ebm] were
like in awe, _ _ like they were frozen in time, _ wondering, just unique, you've never [A] heard
anything like it.
[Ab] Jimmy was [Db] doing some playing that he didn't do [Ab] when we rehearsed it, Buddy
was doing some playing [Ebm] that he didn't do when we were rehearsing, so I just joined in.
We
were all in another vibe, so to speak, [Ab] and when we got through with that, the whole Fillmore _ _ _
East _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
[N] erupted.
I was so fortunate to be [Ebm] able to have the acoustics of the [Abm] Fillmore East, so when [Gb] you
open up the room mics, you [Ebm] really hear that, the snare, and [Db] Jimmy's guitar is just an [Ab] explosion,
which is what it was.
