De Lucia Paco

De Lucia Paco - Mediterranean Sundance Rio Ancho guitar tab

By Al di Meola and Paco de Luc=EDa

From the album "Friday Night in San Francisco"

Transcription by Hugo Pablo Ferpozzi

Gentlemen,

I 've transcribed Al's parts mostly, because Paco's parts are rimthmical =

at first.

Maybe the positions of the fingers are not exactly the same, but =

soundsthe most=20

accurate way as possible.=20

Al plays a steel-string guitar using a pick (quite thin, I think), while =

paco uses a

nylon-string, of course, and for sure, using his fingers.

I couldn't transcribe all the song, it's just impossible, I wrote down =

only the part

I can play following the music, after that, Al starts picking ultra-fast =

and I get

lost inmediatly.

I must thank Eric Shen because his transcriptions of the studio version =

of Mediterranean

Sundance helped me very much.

These tabs are a bit untidy perhaps, but that's all Tab 'o Bucket's =

fault, though it's

an useful soft.

I don't think that it would be a great idea to make the WHOLE tab from =

this song, it would be impossible to read, thus impossible to play.

Above the lines there are the chords Paco plays, or some othernotes to =

make it more=20

clear. By the way, I hope it helps you and if you have whatever to say =

about this, just mail

me: hferpozzi@hotmail.com
