Faraway
One Beat, "Faraway"
This also has more riffs than the average S-K song and it's slower. I think Riff 5A is a S-K masterpiece and playable too.
The song reminds me in a way of Captain Beefheart's "Big Eyed Beans from Venus." If you like "Faraway," you'll like "Beans." Both are big, bombastic R&R songs with great guitar licks. I like them that way.
-
Quarter note = 160 or so but it sounds like 80.
-
Standard tuning.
-
Tabbed where it felt good on the fretboard.
-
Guitar 2 would be more authentic if tuned dropped D and down a half step but it's not really necessary.
-
I hope you can be patient for the graphics to load.
