Gypsy Woman (failed - reindex) Crystal Waters
This being a house tune, the rhythm is pretty fast and tight.
Once you've got this down-pat, what really goes well is throwing in regular string-
slaps, occasional body slaps and sudden stops for a few beats.
Give it a go - don't be shy!
I play these chords this way:
