Woodstock was 50 years ago! Time to celebrate the anniversary with one of my favorite performances of the night, Sly and the Family Stone. The reason some people forget the bay area legend was there was because they took the stage at 3:30 a.m. Saturday, and like a good quality modern DJ that took that party to the next level and kept people dancing in the rain and the mud throughout the night!
This song is actually just a couple of chords and one chord progression but we are going to take a look at some of those chords because one is probably going to be new, the D9, which will be a D7 plus a new finger and the other is probably going to be a chord you are familiar with the G7, but we will be playing it in a new shape because of the really funky bluesy half step down.
