     Artist: Verve
     Song:   Star Sail
     Album:  A Storm In Heaven
     Transcriber: T. Barefoot

     The tracks on A Storm In Heaven don't lend themselves well
     to transcription.  But maybe that's one reason why I think
     this disc so great.

     Here are some fragments from Star Sail:

     Intro
     E---0---
     B---2---
     G---2---  Chord comes in with a quick volume swell,
     D---2---  maybe using an envelope generator
     A---0---
     E---0---

     "Solo"
     These few notes are pure genius. The way the sound evolves
     here is just incredible.  A semi-hollow body guitar like a
     Gibson ES series seems critical for reproducing this.

     after "....crying out are you there?"
