Last of Callaghan-Dervish Boogie Rehearsal

I´m trying to "upgrade", so to speak, my fingering motor-skills on this fast fiddle tune, originally trancribed by Dave Laibman. In my view it´s the up-tempo that creates the tune. When played any slower, it looses all reminiscens of a fiddle. Personally I´m still not able to play it at the right tempo. The loss of notes gets quite exessive in my hands. Stephan Grossman has made an edition of Last of Callaghan-Dervish Boogie that appears on Yazoo Basin Boogie. The tuning of the guitar is a Dropped-D and the melodi is basically played around a D-chord. The tricky part is to incoorporate the boogie. There are several hammer on/pull off´s within this stable D-chord. For that reason the chord feels quite vivid anyway.
