I've spent a couple of hours listening to this with all of today's modern technology, and as best as I can tell, this is what Eddie does for the intro of "Kickin' the Cat"... MP3 file is at the bottom of this post.

(Rhetorical question: why did Joe and Eddie use so many cats and dogs in their song titles?)

For your convenience, I've divided the intro up into little phrases... they are not always exactly a bar each, but after bit of time practising them hopefully you'll see with my logic in dividing them this way... or not!

Corrections and arguments are welcome, as always...

Will

Paul Cezanne: "I could paint for a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing."

Edgar Degas: "Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.... To draw, you must close your eyes and sing."

Georges Braque: "In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that can’t be explained."
