It's on one of their live albums, but I'm not sure which. Someone mentioned "Live At Berkley", but
I couldn't locate that disk anywhere on the web. I'm also trying to track down another recording in
5th by Jr Wells titled "Quit Breakin' Down". Can't find any info on that one either.


I started messing around with 5th after it came up on the list about a month ago and I'm loving it.
There's a lot of meat in the 2 and 3 draw bends that can be milked to great effect. Unlike 4th position, It
can be VERY bluesy without sounding too minor.


Unfortunately, there's not a lot of material out there to mine for ideas, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for all the replies!
