Yet another KOOL song from "Dressed To Kill". Ace Employs two guitars in
the solo to achive some of the sounds. I've transcribed it so it can be
played by one guitarist. The Rhythm parts are slightly different with one
guitar playing a shuffle while the other plays just a straight power chord.
This gives the song a bit of breathing room and movement. Ace's solo is
comprised mainly of Unison bends (an ACE staple),bent/vibrated single
string bends as well as some alternate picking on the two high strings that
follow the chorus chords at the end of the song...

Enjoy!
