Beebop Tango by Frank Zappa guitar tab (text):Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2005 00:18:09 -0400 From: davidarnolddean@bellsouth.net Subject: z/zappa_frank/beebop_tango.tab Artist : Frank Zappa Track : BeeBop Tango Album : Roxy & Elsewhere Joined by : George Duke, Tom Fowler, Ruth Underwood, Jeff Simmons Don Preston, Bruce Fowler, Walt Fowler, Napolean Murphy Brock, Ralph Humphrey, Chester Thompson Transcribed By : David A. Dean (davidadean@bellsouth.net) Guitar(s) : Electric (Probably his Gibson SG) Effects : Compression, Distortion, WAH Pedal, Reverb or Delay Tuning : Standard Time Signature : 12/8 Song Notes : This outlines the guitar solo Frank goes into at the end of the song. The 1st 14 minutes of the track is a satirical thing involving audience participation, and then he wraps everything up with this. The 1st 18 bars start with a standard blues intro and progression (B/E/Gb) and sounds like he's using compression and a clean amp, and some reverb or delay. He then he goes into a relatively long solo adding the WAH and probably a little distortion. Rhythm Notes : 12/8 is a compound time. 4 triplets per measure. This is like 4/4 time where each beat is divided into a triplet. "1 and 1", "2 and 2" etc. and I'm using e's and a's when further subdivision is needed like "1 e and a 1 e". I've further explained the rhythm bar at the bottom of the file. Mechanics : I'm using the standard set of mechanics with a few of my own thrown in. Please see the mechanics examples at the bottom of the page. h - hammer on p - pull off b - bend string up r - release bend / - slide up \ - slide down v - vibrato (sometimes written as ~) t - right hand tap T - left hand tab x - play note with heavy damping < - play note short bbbbb - slow bend up 2bbbb4 - strike the 2 then slowly bend to the 4 over the time on rhythm bar. rrrrr - slow release down 4rrrr2 - strike the 4 (bent 2) then slowly release to 2 over the time on rhythm bar. ''''' - Sustained Note 4''''' - Strike and sustain the 4 over the time on the rhythm bar. ''''b - Sustained/bend up 2'''b4 - strike and hold the note at 2 waiting to bend the note at the time indicated on the rhythm bar. ''''r - Sustained/release down 4'''r2 - strike and hold the bent note at 4 waiting to release the note at the time indicated on the rhythm bar. # This file is all the transcriber's own work. # If you find corrections are needed, please notify me. - BeeBop Tango - Frank Zappa (14:20 into the track) E----------------------------|---11----11----11----11-------10----|

1/8 note away --1-e-&---2---&---3---&---4 Rhythm Bar --1--&--2--&--3--&--4-- : The rhythm bar that appears below the tab lines shows where and how long to play notes, like standard musical notation, to show more accurately what's being played. 9b11 could be a fast bend for only a sixteenth note, or it could take an entire beat. The Rhythm bar should help to give an indication of timing. The physical length of a measure will vary to accomodate mechanics, 2 digit fret numbers, etc. but the note should appear directly under the point on the rhythm bar where it should be played. for example 10b12r10p8 looks like it takes a long time, but may only take 3/16s to play. 10b12r10p8 1--e--& 1--e--&--a--2-- - Sixteenth notes (4/4 time) 1--&--1--2--&--2 - A compound time like 12/8. Each beat a triplet. 1----e----a-2-- - Triplet over the beat (4/4 time) |____3____| An example in 4/4 time: |--1---&---2---&---3---&---4---&--a---1---e---a--2---&--- |___3___| / | | \ \ \ There's a Knock at the door |
