THE MYSTERY MUSIC

Hi Claude,

All these years later, I'm finally remembering to send this to you. I'm
almost positive I posted it to the group way back when, but a) I don't
remember; and 2) I'm too lazy to Google for it. But here it is anyway.

As I recall, it's pretty accurate, although that incredibly fast part
was a pain in the nuts to transcribe. Fortunately, my RP2000 slowed it
down enough for my bad ears to figure it out.

Enjoy!

Alan

Main Melody Riff

NOTE: I learned this one way, and on the Kent video, Mike 
plays it another. Unfortunately, I didn’t zoom in on MK’s
hands on the video, so I can’t be exactly certain of what
he’s playing, so I did my best guess. That said, it seems
easier to me to play it the way I learned it, but I guess
that’s because I learned it that way. So, for your viewing
pleasure, I’m giving you both versions. And for your mental
exercise, you can transpose this up an octave to play the
second part like the CD.
