After the Ordeal

This was an intercontinental project. Andreas Lemke in Germany did the first part (on acoustic guitar) and Bill Thomas did the electric solo at the end here in Pittsburgh. Love that internet. Frankly, I think Andreas did the hard part, and his is certainly better developed, with timing and everything! We hope this will shake loose some more Steve Hackett fans. After The Ordeal by Genesis - Selling England By The Pound (1973) ================================================================= (From Andreas Lemke:) 03/14/93 This is my personal interpretation of the non-drum part of the song. It is not intended to be an exact transcription of the original guitar part only. The weakest part of this interpretation is the beginning of Part C (sorry).

Also, the notes in the parentheses are only played the second time through. Play LEGATO, as in, very smoothly and with no discernible connection between notes -- a hallmark of the Steve Hackett guitar style. ----------------------------------------------7)--12--12--12--12- -12--12--12--12--10--10--10--8--7--8--(8--10--------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- -10--10--10--8--7--8--(8--10--12)--15--14--12------13--12---------- -----------------------------------------------15----------15--13-- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------- -13--11--10--11--10--12s13s12---o --------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------o --------------------------------- --------------------------------- --------------------------------- -17b15--14--15----------------------------------------------------- ----------------12b10--8--10-----8--7------------------------------ ------------------------------9--------7--------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Then there's the ending, when Gabriel plays flute, and the guitar part becomes very minor. ------ Originally transcribed and posted by Bill Thomas, corrected by Andreas Lemke.
