Gabriel Peter - Sledgehammer guitar tab

-##

Hi,

First off I would like to thank you for providing this service. I had

all but given up on playing when I found this resource. This fresh input

has revived my love.

I noticed a request for Sledgehammer in the most-wanted list. I found

the following crd for this at another site. The originators address is

at the top. I attempted to contact him/her to see if they minded me

forwarding this to you but couldn't get mail through to that address. I

kinda figured if it was in a public ftp directory they might not mind it

being spread around. I am sending the file intact incase you or anyone

else wishes to attempt to contact him/her.

Again thanks for being there and doing all this for all of us.

Regards,

Christopher Martin (cmartin@martin.idi.oclc.org)
