附注:
This should be a fairly solid and accurate transcription of Criss Oliva's main rhythm guitar part. The mixes for this album make it difficult to make out all of his fills, but I've done my best to add those I could pick out.
I chose not to transcribe the guitar solo for several reasons. First of all, it's not one of Criss Oliva's better or memorable solos. The first half is simply vibrato bar trickery, while the final section has him cramming in a lot of squirrely runs for "flash's sake". (No dispect intended towards Criss here, as I usually adore his lead playing. He was still very much honing his style here in 1983.)
If I were to perform this song myself, I would almost certainly improvise a more coherent guitar solo for this song. It's also quite hard to hear everything he is playing and it would be almost masochistic to try and write this out. If you think YOU can do better, be my guest! --Robbit
