Not Of This Earth by Joe Satriani - TAB'd by Frank A. Taylor - frank@lsds.com Here is the title track of the first widely available Satriani Album "Not Of This Earth" - awesome song! I tend to split up bars if a run is going to end up spanning over to a new to make it hopefully clearer for you to read and play. Any comments, please email me at frank@lsds.com and say hi! Check out the most comprehensive Satch TAB site on the net at: http://www.lsds.com/frank/guitar.html - frequent updates with more TAB all the time! Mork (Frank) Enjoy!

Strike the first note and without picking, pull the finger off to sound the second (lower) note. H - Hammer-on: Strike the first (lower) note, then sound the higher note with another finger by fretting it withot picking. / - Slide: Strike the first note and then slide the same fretted finger up or down to the second note. Example: 2/4 is to slide from the 2nd fret up to the 4th and the fourth fret note is played. 2/(4) is to slide from the 2nd fret up to the fourth fret, the 4th fret is not played. 2/ means to slide from the 2nd fret up the neck of the guitar to an indefinite point. 9/ means to slide from the 9th fret down also to an indefinite point. ~~ - Vibrato: The string is vibrated by rapidly bending and releasing the note with the left hand or tremolo bar. X - Muffled strings: A percussive sound is produced by laying the left hand across the strings withouu depressing them and striking them with the right hand. sh - Semi-Harmonic: The note is fretted normally and a harmonic is produced by adding the edge of the thumb or the tip of the index finger on the right hand to the normal pick attack. High volume or distortion will allow for a greater variety of harmonics. T - Tapping: Hammer ('tap') the fret indicated with the right hand index or middle finger and pull off to the note fretted by the left hand. X>Y - Strike note X and bend up to Y. The string is hit when Y is reached. X>(Y) - Strike note X and bend up to Y. Example: 5>(7)>(5) indicates a bend from the 5th fret up to the 7th fret and then released back to the 5th. The string is only hit once. 3>(3.5)>(3) would indicate a blues bend and release which is a small very common bend. It's not a one fret bend but half of that. If you get confused, basically () notes aren't picked.
