This is an attempt at transcribing Mean Streets off Van Halen's Fair Warning.
|
|
I've gotten the gyst of it (I think), but the intro isn't exactly correct.
|
|
Call this a cry for help. If you know of a better way to do it, please e-mail
|
|
me! (brian_t@ix.netcom.com) Here goes....
|
|
|
|
The fade-in riff is a percussive guitar version of a 'paradiddle' (that's what
|
|
my drummer says, anyway). This is pretty close to what he is doing. All
|
|
notes are tapped harmonics, produced by momentarily ramming your finger onto
|
|
the string right at the fret and releasing. The 12th fret harmonics are
|
|
produced by tapping with your pick hand (I'm told Eddie does it with his thumb).
|

Try to get this as smooth and rhythmic as possible. It's important to slap the
|
|
string pretty hard to get the harmonics
|
|
|
|
Then comes the flurry of harmonics and tapped arpeggios. These are far from
|
|
correct, but they give a general idea of what is going on. Notes in parentheses
|
|
are hammered harmonics. nn/nn designates a fretted note that is made harmonic
|
|
by hammering over the second postion. 5/12 says to fret at the fifth, and
|
|
tap-hammer over the 12th fret.

Section 4 is replaced the second time around with a pick slide down strings 6
|
|
& 5; the rhythm is provided by toggling the guitar pickup on and off. This
|
|
can be pretty tricky to do, as you have to come right back out of it into a
|
|
C on the 3rd fret to go into the verse.
|
|
|
|
The verse copies the intro, you can figure that out by listening to the
|
|
tape.

Eddie adds a lot of little harmonics, pick scrapes, etc. To give the song more
|
|
spontaneity. The best way to pick these up is liten to the tape, they tend
|
|
to defy notation ( Fender mediums do tend to make the best scraping sounds
|
|
however!)
|
|
|
|
Eddie's solo is very freeform. I'll notate a few of the more signature licks.
|
|
When you're trying to play a Van Halen solo, its usually best to nail those
|
|
and glue them together with licks of your own in the same mode. 2^---\ means
|
|
bend up two steps, hold, then release.

There's plenty of goof ups in here, but when I play Van Halen covers I try
|
|
to for replicating the feel of the solo. You're never going to sound exactly
|
|
like Eddie, and his style is do freeform that it'll sound better if you're
|
|
shooting from the hip anyway.
|
|
|
|
The song ends out with the guitar fading from C to D, and a slow solo played,
|
|
once again, in A minor.
|
|
|
|
Good luck!
