She Sells Sanctuary
the Cult, from _Love_
trascription by pat@jaameri.gsfc.nasa.gov (Patrick M. Ryan)
Notes:
Most of the rhythm in this tune is just chugging along
on 2 or 3 strings. The palm is muffling the strings at the
bridge for that percussive sound. For the purposes of
this song, a comma (,) above the staff indicates one chug.
[ Note the use of precise musical terminology. ]
The Cult's guitarist likes the "big guitar" sound. He
plays this on some kind of big hollow-body, like a Howard Roberts
or a Gretsch.
