post. This is the main riff. This version can be
played without the vibrato bar and is easier to play

is with bar, but sound better than Charles' original
version. Do whatever you wish. From: ceh1@acpub.duke.edu (Charles Eric
Horowitz) In the Evening by Led Zeppelin The intro thing is just a droning
synthesizer and Jimmy playing the open E-string with a bow. The overdub is called(I
think) a rotovibe which is a little spinning wheel which when you
touch it to the string, produces that rolling sound. The main riff is double-tracked and with a
little adlibbing is basically: by the way this is with a strat, or
something with a whammy bar: e----------------------------------------------------------------------- b---5--5-5--3--3--2\\0//2\\0-------------5-5-5-3-3--2\\0//2------------- g---4--4-4--2--0--2\\0//2\\0-------------4-4-4-2-0--2\\0//2------------- d---2--2-2--0--0--2\\0//2\\0----2-5-2----2-2-2-0-0--2\\0//2------------- a----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-0-----------------------------------0--------------------------------- ^^^Thats a bend down on the whammy
