PARTNERS IN CRIME (from the KISS CD "KILLERS")
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
Standard tuning
Comments: Love this song. The riff is so simple but so effective. The octave
A's in Rhy. Figs 2 and 3 are actually played by two guitars (one octave each)
but I thought it would be more efficient to list it like this. The solo work
though, doesn't grab me. But Bob Kulick, who I believe played this, sure
grabbed his whammy bar. Nothing like getting a new toy. Of course, extensive
whammy-bar work like this is kind of hard to notate well so listen to the
CD and take it from there.
