When The Levee Breaks chords (for acoustic guitar; an oxymoron?)
Led Zeppelin 1970 (Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie 1929)
Arguably, one of the finest recordings ever mixing the blues with heavy metal rock.
About the great Mississippi flood of 1927.Very hard to accurately duplicate because of the
heavy amount of studio recording, echo harmonica & special effects.
E7* = G string 1st fret + A string 2nd fret (2 finger E7 chord)
E7** = E chord + B string 3rd fret (4 finger E7 chord)
E chord
Repeatedly strum E7*/E/E7**/E7* Play around with different combinations for the best
effect, deemphasizing the high E string and emphasizing the low E string
