Thank you Noel!

On this tune, what you suggest may well be the case... It starts on a B chord and the entire song is a repetition of the chords B-E-A-D...

As its notation shows 3 sharps in the treble clef, musically wiser people than I have told me this song is in the key of "A". The song's two solos are 8 bars long and start on the "B" chord passing through the "A" twice. B-E-A-D-B-E-A-D

However, at this point you lose me, as my musical theory skill set is to "find a guy that knows what he's talking about". (And I think I have here!) I watched your video, but must admit I'm not too sure on what constitutes an "incidental key change" or how to deal with them. Perhaps you can educate me. I'd be VERY interested on your thoughts on this tune - a song that passes through it's key note once every 4 bars... and how I could "F5" it to solo correctly...

I checked and my "transposing audio" is set to 0...

I'm not too experienced in attaching files here on the forum, I don't see an "attach an mp3 button" anywhere... May I send you my email via PM so we can exchange an mp3 example that way - or would you prefer to keep it on the forum? If so I believe I've seen an article/video titled "How to post things to the forum" here on the PG site somewhere, so I'll try to find it and educate myself...

(A nagging thought I'm having is that I believe I've also had this soloing problem with simple 1-4-5 rock tunes as well...)

just an old analog dog tryin' to learn new tricks...
