Standard tuning
Comments: I think Bruce's soloing improved tremendously between his debut
on Asylum to this album. More bluesy stuff and not so much 80's widdling.
This is a prime example, straight out of blues-box city, and it rocks.
Great riffs too, Carr sure had some skills. I've arranged the guitars
here for one guitar to make things easier. The harmonies played (F#/A and
G#/B) are divided between the two.
Key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)
b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
t = tap with righthand finger
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
~ = Vibrato
* = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
** = Artificial Harmonic
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
(/) = Release w\bar
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
