Joe Satriani - Cool #9 guitar tab
"Cool #9" - Joe Satriani
from the album - "Joe Satriani
Tabbed by: John Burrows
E-mail address: John.Burrows@btinternet.com
Well, before I start, I'd just like to say that Joe is one of my favourite guitarists,
and I'm gonna start trying to tab all of the songs from "Joe Satriani" the album ,
because I think it's his best one. I know that some people disagree with me on that,
but I like this kind of bluesy stuff. I think that I've tabbed this song accurately,
but if anybody notices anything that doesn't sound quite right, feel free to E-mail
me and I'd be glad to correct it.
Put this tab into a self-aligning font ( I use Courier , text size 8pt ) for the best
effect.
Please E-mail me with corrections, constructive criticism, thankyou's etc. If I get
just one positive bit of feedback I'll be happy, and I'll quite happily try some of
the other songs from this album. Give me a mail and let me know which ones you'd like
me to post the most :) Personally I think that (You're) My World kicks arse!!.
If anyone wants to talk about Satch, then drop me an E-mail. I use my Internet Cafe
about once every two weeks, so I'll E-Mail you back when I can.
Oh yeah, ( I know I talk too much :) but this is a big plea!!!! Does anybody know
Joe's address. I'd love to know how to get in touch with him ( apart from the
comments page on his site ). An E-mail address would do if nobody knows where he lives.
This is the rhythm guitar which goes on through most of the song

And now we've got the lead :
In the song , depressing the whammy pedal causes notes to sound an octave higher than written.
Whammy Pedal indications:
+ = pedal depressed ( Notes sound an octave higher than written )
o = pedal released ( Notes sound as written )
