Artist: Verve
Song: Star Sail
Album: A Storm In Heaven
Transcriber: T. Barefoot
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---
Riff 1.

"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?"

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official VERVE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
