They're Red Hot

by Robert Johnson

------------------

This song has been transcribed in C, the same key as Robert's original

recording. Unfortunately it is his only uptempo 'hokum' song. It is in

standard tuning.

The transcription is correct but it is difficult to convey any blues

rythym via this medium, therefore I suggest people listen to the

recording as well.

The above is a very easy way to play that Robert Johnson song.

For a more detailed transcription I would recommend:

Scott Ainslie's "Robert Johnson complete guitar transcription".

It's NO book for beginners!

I hope this tab's not too bad, and you folks can work with it.

If you have any questions about the tab, sure you can ask me

(I'll do my best to answer any questions :-) ... )!

have fun

PS: Any corrections or comments welcome!

Any Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher or Muddy Waters tab would be very welcome!
