Subject: BTAB: Metallica - Kill 'em all
From: wfpol@cs.ruu.nl (Wilbert Pol)
The people who transcribed it :
Jeff Jacobson - Anesthesia - Pulling Teeth
Andy Aledort - Jump in the Fire
Steve Gorenberg - the rest
The only thing I've done is converting them to ascii.
I've put all note lengths below the measures, they are :
w - whole note
h - half note
q - quarter note
e - eigth note
s - sixteenth note
t - thirty-second note
l - long note ('fermate' sign)
x+y - play note with length x+y
/ - a couple of these mean you have to fill the length with
1. eight notes (1 slash) or
2. sixteenth notes (2 slashes) or
3. thirty-second notes (3 slashes)
R - in the tab denotes a rest.
x - an undefined or muted note.
[ 3 ] - a triplet
/ - slide up
/(X) - slide up to fret X, but don't pick X
- slide down
(X) - slide down to fret X, but don't pick X
T - tap note
Harm - harmonic
A.H. - Artificial harmonic
inside bar :
p - pull off
h - hammer on
bx - bend string x notes up
bx r - bend string x notes up and release string
a note without a length indication, means a 'ghost' note (The little notes
that occur in sheet music sometimes).
cresc. - crescendo (Play louder and louder, 'fade in')
