Beau Jocque - Morning Train

Not sure if I have this figured out or not.

I'm assuming he's playing this on a GCF, in D.

The opening licks or blips, what I'm getting is ACD then BD, then repeat. Or is that CD instead of ACD.

I can find the ACD in a couple of positions, but both awkward at this point in my playing skill. If it's ACD, what position would you play it?

I get
1.6/1.7/2.7' pull, or
2.5/2.7/1.7' pull, or
3.4/3.5/1.7 push

I could probably do the first one most reliably at this point.

Is there another way to do this? Am I on the right track?

Re: Beau Jocque - Morning Train

As you say, it sounds like a GCF triple row, played in D.

Further affiant sayeth naught. (I haven't tried to play it, so I don't have anything else to add.)

Re: Beau Jocque - Morning Train

This is the way I hear it workrd out on an IPAD with triple row app.

2,3/1,5/1,7 pull to 1,456 push or

easiest 1/567 pull to 1/456 push

the lick is 2,7 1,7 1,6 2,7 1,7 1,6 1/7
