I admire Webb but I could never do what he does. On the other hand, reading his book made me a better guitarist because it made me think and want to try things out. Granted, I think a lot slower than he does.

If you listened to the whole interview, you know that you can't make that little telegraph sound accurately without hiring a truck and movers to bring Webb's organ to wherever you're playing. Campbell wasn't playing that sound. I thought that story was very cool. I'm talking about the d-d-d-d-d between the verses. OK, I understand. I thought you meant the commercial recording.

I wasn't very clear about that because I was on my phone and couldn't share the segment I'm talking about. But from seconds :50 through :59 -- and then repeating throughout -- there's what I always thought was a mimic of a telegraph signal (echoing the "line" of "line"man). I wasn't referring to that trilling part at the very beginning that Webb's story referred to as having come from the organ app. This pop song did the same thing contemporarily and maybe that's why I always made the association:

(dar just walked by and saw the 5 americans video and said...."is that who I think it is?" -- the lead singer is a Tom Cruise doppelganger.

I forgot I knew how to play this (I'm searching old files for a pottery photo and came across this). Substitutions. This was a period in my playing when I'd use all kinds of substitutions to see how they'd sound or if they'd work.
