Barefoot <[email protected]> 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---

"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?"
