HEART OF CHROME (from the KISS CD "REVENGE")
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: Gene plays it pretty safe on this one. There are relatively few
llides and high register fills which was legio during this period. Instead
he holds down to fort when the guitars go up into the higher registers and
provides a nice quarter-note chorus riff to keep the syncopations in the
guitars balanced. Really good stuff.
