Artist: Verve

Song: Star Sail

Album: A Storm In Heaven

Transcriber: T. Barefoot <thomas.w.barefoot@intel.com>

Added By Mikhailo

The tracks on A Storm In Heaven don't lend themselves well

to transcription. But maybe that's one reason why I think

this disc so great.

Here are some fragments from Star Sail:

Intro

     E---0---
     B---2---

G---2--- Chord comes in with a quick volume swell,

D---2--- maybe using an envelope generator

     A---0---
     E---0---

Riff 1.

(with echo)

     D-------|----------------------------------------------------
     A-- 0---|---------------------------------0------------------

"Solo"

These few notes are pure genius. The way the sound evolves

here is just incredible. A semi-hollow body guitar like a

Gibson ES series seems critical for reproducing this.

after "....crying out are you there?"
