This is the beginning of 'days of wine and roses' before wes starts his
solo.
The above is wes playing the song with some
additions to chords (such as added sixths or dimished fifths).
Then tune the progresses to the solos where wes plays
over the above chord structure which is being played by an organ and
bass.
Some of the above positions are difficult and take time to learn
but stick with it and the rewards will come!
Try to dampen open strings to prevent the playing of
extraneous notes.
When wes plays it is important to remember that
he uses his thumb instead of a pick which gives a mellower sound.
It is a good idea to listen to the tune before attempting
it to get the right rhythm and 'feel'.
