Frank Zappa - Peaches En Regalia guitar tab

PEACHES EN REGALIA - FRANK ZAPPA

-------------------------------------------

From the album 'Hot Rats'

tabbed by Howard Wright

spxhaw@uk.ac.cf.thor

/ = slide

b = bend up (e.g 11b13 means play 11th fret note and bend up a tone)

r = release bend (e.g 11b13r11 means play 11th fret note, bend up, then release)

h = hammer on

p = pull off

I've tried to TAB out as much as I know, and then I've written out just the chords

for the bits I didn't tab. I've written out chord names above the TAB as well to give

the basic feel.

Please note - chords with a / like A/C# mean A with a C# in the bass.

INTRO CHORDS :

---------------

You can't really play the bass notes with the chords on just

one guitar, but I've written out the chord names (including bass notes)

above the TAB anyway.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

There are quite a few phrases like these with lots of notes slurred together

into a run. It's probably a lot easier to do this on a sax (as it's played on

the original) than a guitar, but you can get close on a guitar with a bit of

practice.

ORGAN PART :

------------

These are just the intro chords again, but using different inversions

for a bit of variety.

Again - bass notes are indicated by the chord names (A/B is A triad with

B bass) - but you can't easily play triads and bass notes together on one

guitar.
