• Song:

    Before The Beginning

  • Artist:

    John Frusciante

  • Album:

    The Empyrean

Okay, this is one of the coolest songs I have heard. Maybe you don't like it, but I think it is the best purely instrumental song made. 

Artist: John Frusciante
Album: The Empyrean
Length: 9:09 (quite long)

This may not be exactly same as it was played originally, but when you play it with the music, it sounds the same...  :D
Hope you enjoy my tab
