Thanks everyone. I think I understand what you're saying. I do know that this just confirms what I have been trying to avoid. I am just going to have to buckle down and learn some theory. I have no idea why it seems to intimidate me so much. I am really not that dumb (At least I hope) so I should be able to figure it out.

And I'm in complete agreement Dev, 'The Sky is crying' is a great SRV tune and I think that Elmore James was a genius. An absolute MASTER of slide.
