Song: I Want You Right Now

Artist: MC5

Album: Kick Out the Jams

Year: 1969

Songwriters: Davis/Kramer/Smith/Thompson/Tyner*

Length: 6:02



* The songwriter is a guess - the original LP is

misprinted and does not credited this song's writer. I

assumed it to be the same as the other original songs,

and it certainly is an original, so unless Smith wrote

it then that credit is probably sound.



Transcribed by a little soul

(pulpalittlesoul@yahoo.com)



Notes: It's about bloody time somebody got this

transcribed. After all, it has been thirty years, and

the entire song is three power chords. Really. That is

the simple brilliance of Kick Out the Jams; their

later work just does not have the same resonance and

tends to be much more straitforward. I think it's nice

to get this one in, especially after Rage Against the

Machine bastardized the record's title track so

wretchedly. Frankly even three decades later Kick Out

the Jams sounds prescient and I suspect that is why it

continues to influence scores of musicians to this

day. This track is my personal favorite on that album

though I hardly ever see it mentioned; ironic, because

this song is the most thorough microcosm of the 5's

sound on record (or at least their live sound). This

transcription comes as close to the source as possible

- it's from the original LP, which by the number

etched in the middle I can tell was originally

purchased in a Hudson's in 1970 or so. At $10 it was a

nice buy. Ah well. On to the transcription...



Effects: Distortion. If you are not new to the MC5

sound this should come as second nature  I can't tab

Smith's work though it may employ more effects.



Tuning: Standard (EADGBE).



Time signature: 4/4



Chords:

    Easy way  Better sounding way  Best sounding way

A5: 577XXX         X022XX            X,0,7,9,10,0

C5: 8,10,10,X,X,X  X355XX            X,0,10,12,13,0

D5: 10,12,12,X,X,X X577XX            X,0,0,14,15,0



* There has been argument made that this might be best

(or easiest) played with open position major chords. I

don't really see why, but in that case: A - 002220; C

- 032010; D - X00232



For the song play A5, then C5, then D5, then C5 again

for 1 bar each. The strumming pattern is quite simple

so I won't tab it out but I think it's quite

self-explanatory.



That's about it then. It wasn't too difficult either.

Lovely. Now if you've got a question or comment or

kudos or insult or anything else to say you can mail

me (pulpalittlesoul@yahoo.com) and we'll chat.



And if you run a record label, drop me a line. I've

got a band called Other People's Music you know.



* That's it friends *
