transcribed by Torsten Lasse File name: "yes-tales_from_t_o.txt" ((Version 1)) These transcribtion contains several (acoustic guitar) parts from the "Tales..." -Album as I hear them; for this transcribtion I used the Steve Howe recording of it (guitar and vocals) which you can find at the "Yes, Friends and Relatives"- Album (a really bad album). Following along with the record (Original or Howe- Version) is a very good idea... Perhabs I will complete this version with the rest of the interresting guitar parts of the original album in a few years... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Index: 1.
