Does anyone know what album this was tabbed off of? There's a live version where Brian is using a baritone I think tuned down to C. This tab is showing it in E. TIA

I believe it's from Choo Choo Hot Fish - a great Stray Cats album. At least it's in E. There's another one in E on Rockin' By Myself, and while it's not the one Nikko used, that's definitely an album to have in your Setzer collection.

None of these are nearly as cool as the one on the Live in Japan DVD / BSO Ultimate Live CD. It's not just Brian, but Bernie and Mark as well who make that one of the finest Setzer performances ever recorded. It's a shame that version wasn't in a more guitar-friendly key. Perhaps that's why Nikko chose to tab the version he did.

Don't have my guitar handy, but that little run up the A, D, and G strings looks like the version off of Choo Choo Hot Fish. Not sure when Nikko published those originally, but it might have been before Live In Japan was available.

The one i know is the version of "BSO Live in japan", if i remember correct it was written in E, but Brian played it with dropdown baritone guitar.
