Errata for the Hal Leonard Apostrophe book

closely to all the notes...
Anyway the notes themselves are probably fine. I didn't exactly burn
through the Stinkfoot solo but love how it begins with those nice
country licks...
But come on, tell me whether "Stinkfoot" is a riff on C and B flat or
C and F. The latter is marked in the book, although the master chord
chart shows only C and B flat. The guitar riff does go to F, but
there is an F in B flat major chord dontcha know.
Also, on the "good morning your highness" section of Father O'Blivion,
the chords are marked as Amaj7 to Gm7 but the second chord is clearly
G# m7.
So don't be fooled!
Meanwhile, I am pretty proud of myself for having worked up campfire
versions of "Cosmik Debris" and "Uncle Remus"!

Worked DOWN is what you mean right?

C major and F major would indicate key of C. Bb
wouldn't necessarily be dissonant. Rules are meant
to be broken, and should be whenever possible.

The version of UR in that book sounds kinda nice
on a banjo. Love to hear it on a pipe organ.

I suppose the proper term is I "reduced" the presented information in
such a way that I could actually play it.

When I said "The guitar riff does go to F" what I meant was that the
notated single note line arrives at an "F" note. Right about that
time people, I think most folks would agree that playing a B flat
major chord reminds you of the song "Stinkfoot", whereas playing an F
major chord reminds you of any of the thousands of songs having been
written in the key of C and using F as the second chord. The note "F"
is not dissonant within B flat major, surely. But if you play C to F
it won't remind you of Stinkfoot, whereas going C to B flat really
does. Break the rules all you want, but we're trying to play
Stinkfoot here kids!

I'm reminded of FZ's ad lib from the El Paso show on the Bongo Fury
tour. "Get your shoes and socks on, people, it's right around the corner
over by that B flat chord that just went out the window."
