Tabbed by Jere Haakana.
Phew, this was 'kinda tricky'. Composed by Frank Zappa, Black Page is
the song that will give any guitarist ( pianist, whatever ) a run for
his money. Steve Vai sent his transcription of this to Frank and that
way become a transcriber, while I can't do that, I just learn how to
play this monster instead. If you hear it on the first time, it may
sound like a random notes being struck, but keep listening, it's a REAL
SONG and even a good one, ok, this is for not beginning guitarists, so
if you've played for like 2 months, do yourself a favor and go check out
my Blues Saraceno tabs. Now, get to work.
