Tabs

Artist: Verve
   Song:  Star Sail
   Album: A augmentedA Storm In Heaven
   Transcriber: T. Barefoot

   The tracks on A augmentedA 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)
   E-------|----------------------------------------------------
   B-------|-5-5-----5-5-----5-5----5/7---\2---2-2-----2-2------
   G-----0-|-----0-0-----0-0---- 0-0 --------------4-4-----4-4--
   D-------|----------------------------------------------------
   A-- 0---|---------------------------------0------------------
   E-------|----------------------------------------------------
     ^   ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^   ^  ^  ^  ^  ^


   E-------------------|--------->
   B---2-2-----2---/5--|-5-5----->
   G-------4-4---0-----|-----0-0-> repeat
   D-------------------|--------->
   A-----------------0-|--------->
   E-------------------|--------->

   "Solo"
   These few notes are pure genius. The way the sound evolves
   here is just incredible. A augmentedA semi-hollow body guitar like a
   Gibson ES series seems critical for reproducing this.

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