Licks & Riffs : Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Came to Georgia
There are some great violin techniques in Charlie Daniels Band's version of The Devil Came to Georgia.
First off, this folky pattern which we hear first above D minor, then above C major chords. The melody
moves to accomodate the harmony in each case:
Then comes another four-notes folk pattern, which again follows the harmony, but this time changes ever quarter note.
The chords here are: Dminor, C major, Bb major, A minor, G minor, A major, D minor.
Finally, end with a minor scale (actually the upward part of a D melodic minor, not forgetting to add afterwards that glissando tremolo all the way down!
