ROCKFORD FILES THEME (POST / CARPENTER )


About

Something really old-school. I loved that series starring James Garner when I was a kid. Particularly the beginning with the messages on the answering machine - a futuristic technology in Old Germany at that time. In 1975 the theme music (written by Mike Post and Pete Carpenter) won a Grammy for best instrumental arrangement. 

 

Original Key

What the hell do I know ?

 

Tuning

Regular

 

Tab Notes 

A very nice piece with some fast and tricky passages, but not to difficult. During the underlined sequence iI find it more comfortable to change the „standard“ right hand picking to: index for D-string, middle finger for G-string and ring finger for B-string.
