(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
From "Machine Head", 1972
As usual, listen the record for timing and all that guitar tricks.
/ - slide
~~ - vibrato
bf - full tone bend
There''s another guitar here which harmonizes this
part w/perfect 5ths:
e|----------------------|--------------------------------------
b|----------------------|-10/12-12-12-12-12--10/12-12-12-12-12-
G|-----------4-7-4---4--|--------------------------------------
D|-------4-7-------7----|--------------------------------------
A|---5-7----------------|--------------------------------------
E|-7--------------------|--------------------------------------
Riff 2:
w/lyrics
If you find it hard to catch the rhythmic pattern that guitar plays, just keep
playing harmony the way your left leg (or right ear) likes it.
I think that even Blackmore himself doesn''t remember how to play here.
e|-----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------|
b|-----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------|
G|-----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------|
D|-----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------|
A|-----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------|
E|-7--7-7-7----7-7-|-7---7-7--7--7--7-|-7---7---7---7-|7--7-7-7--7----|
Then repeat riff 1...and riff 2...and then play SOLO.
SOLO:
No, no, no, I will not tab solo here. I always play my own one,
why don''t you do the same? Just fool around B-moll pentatonic scale.
Then play riff 2...
The rhythm track for ORGAN SOLO:
e|-------------------| <--- Play many times, in different ways. Have fun.
b|-------------------|
G|-------------------|
D|-------------------|
A|-------------------|
E|-7---7-7-7-----7-7-|
And riff 1...but not the whole one...you''ll notice the time to play
following:
A bit difficult. Ok, ok - VERY DIFFICULT. Have enough practice:
e|-----------------------6-|--------------------
b|-----------------9-------|-----10-----9-----9- ECHO repeats the
G|-----------8-------------|--------8-7---8-7--- last 3 notes several times
D|-----7-------------4-3---|-8-7----------------
A|-------------5-4---------|--------------------
E|-7-6---7-5---------------|--------------------
And the OUTRO solo. It may not be all correct, but it is what I''ve heard:
