Song: WHEN YOUR WALLS COME DOWN
Artist: KISS
Album: CRAZY NIGHTS
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, kfemil@telia.com
Standard tuning
Comments: Not much to it. Once again the bass stays with the guitars.
when it doesn't play riffs it keeps the eight-notes pumping on the
root. Predictable, yes. Boring, perhaps. Appropriate, I think so.
Although I would rather see Gene rip it up and kick some ass on a lot
of these tracks, this does work and as such it is fine.
