Sartori In Tangiers (Tab)

Here's a somewhat simplified arrangement of King Crimson's Sartori In
Tangiers. I tabbed it to help myself figure it all out, because it makes
for a good ice breaker at the beginning of a jam session with the
band. it's probably also a good one for auditioning a guitarist... see how
he can compare to fripp :)
the bass side is run through a slapback echo... pick a tempo and be sure to
keep in time with that rhythm to keep it as tight as possible. warr
guitarists would probably wanna use the bridge bass pickup and neck melody
pickup.
this is tabbed for warr/grand stick, just because i'm used to that. 10
stringers can just ignore the 6th and 12th strings, nothing is played on
them anyway.
these first 2 lines are played in free time, using a volume
pedal for swells.

this is followed by part A once. Part B repeats a few times, and then C
comes in, twice with chord D interjected, and then with variations on part
C and occasionally variations of fill E thrown in.

Next comes part F, which is played several times with variations on the
last 3 notes, sometimes played as a chord. Part G comes in after several
bars and repeats a few times until returning to the main part, C, until the
end.

Here are the solos of "Sartori in Tangier". Apparently Fripp's using a
octaver on his guitar synth preset, cause he's playing awefully high notes! I've
transcribed them an octave lower.
Any feedback is always welcome, enjoy!
