David,

On the fourth chorus is the "oodlelottlelottle" stuff done while tongue blocking or puckering? Having a tough time with this part.

Nevermind. Pucker. Got it.

Nevermind. Pucker. Got it. It was just driving me crazy because on the second "oodle lottle" train it sounds like a slap, pull or ghost note on the first 5'4' after the first dip. I guess that would besecond bar of the oodle lottles. Is he just checking to make sure he has the 5 and 4 draw lined up?
