The Stones also deliver a kick-ass version of "Around and Around" on their second US album, "12x5."

This, for me, looked like easy to play but I found out that it wasn't. Isn't the little solo that he does starting at the 12th fret, strings 5,4,3, B and C pedals down sliding down to 10?
Anyway thank you Frank and a happy Christmas to you.

Hey Joachim -

Yes, not much bar movement but the fingering is a little tricky. For the other solo section, I usually grab 4,5A, and 6 at the 5th fret but I like what you're doing at the 12th better!

Frohe Weihnachten, bro!
