Got the A part to “Road to Columbus” under your fingers? It’s time for the B part, which is mostly played in third position. Chad takes the tune apart phrase by phrase and also shows you a nice quick vibrato that Kenny Baker uses on some of the high notes. Then he plays the whole tune through slowly so you can play along with him, and ends with a few times through the tune at its usual tempo with a few improvised variations.
