Garry's Corner, The tribute page to Garry W. Tallent
- Song:Badlands
Artist:Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band
Album: Darkness On The Edge Of town (1978).
Bassist:Garry Tallent
Info:
Here you have the main line for different parts of the song. I have tabbed the
live and the album versions. The live version is more powerful (and easier?).
I am not sure about the album version; there are many variations in length of
notes, but maybe the tab here helps someone to get it. Listen to the song to
get the structure.
