Thanks for the response to Bar Line 99. Here`s an unsung tune of Ian`s
that I really like. I`ll try to get Muddy Jesus out when I get one of the
riffs down. But anyway, enjoy and tell others about Ian Moore.
Lie - Ian Moore
well distorted, but soft and with a fast chorus on the verses. during the
verses, pick out the three notes of the power chords (D, D, and E) as you
go. (n/c) means no chord is played here. the intro, fills, and solo are all
in the basic Em pentatonic scale (at bottom) and i encourage you to learn
ian`s stuff, but improvise on it.
