RIFF SUGGESTION 1: (from Scott Hannon ([email protected])):

"Thanks for the post...since the guitar riff was omitted, here it is
(from memory, so no guarantee!)

e-----------------------------------------------------------
b-----------------------------------------------------------
g------5-3-0-5------3-3--0-5--0-3-------5-3-0-5----5-3-0----
d------5-3-0-5------3-3--0-5--0-3-------5-3-0-5----5-3-0-3--
a--------------------------------------------------------3--
e---3-------------3------------------3-------------------1--

"Use pull-offs and hammer-ons....this is basically a two finger riff."

RIFF SUGGESTION 2: (from Tomas ([email protected]))

"Sorry, but I think your riff is slightly incorrect. I think this is more
accurate:
(also from memory, no guarantees)"

e-----------------------------------------------------------
b-----------------------------------------------------------
g------3-2-0-5------3-2-0-5--0-3------3-2-0-5------3-2-0----
d------3-2-0-5------3-2-0-5--0-3------3-2-0-5------3-2-0-3--
a--------------------------------------------------------3--
e---3-------------3------------------------------3------(1)-


RIFF SUGGESTION 3: (from [email protected] (Richard Swann))

"Well just to give my two cents' worth, I think the riff should be played
like this:

>e-----------------------------------------------------------
>b-----------------------------------------------------------
>g---0--3-2-0-5----0-3-2-0-5----3------3-2-0-5----0-3-2-0----
>d---0--3-2-0-5----0-3-2-0-5----3------3-2-0-5----0-3-2-0-3--
>a--------------------------------------------------------3--
>e-----------------------------------------------------------

"...but I know I play a whole load of Purple riffs differently to the way the
b'stard in black does (I know he plays Space Truckin' differently to me)"
