Note: there are 2 versions of this solo, the album one and the one Kerry played for the clip.
This is the clip version, which in my opinion kicks the **** outta the album one
2ND SOLO (cool!!!)
Jeff Hanneman
RYTHYM: Same as Chorus
This solo is pretty easy – its mostly tap picking. The only problem you might have
is the speed with some of the ‘interlude’ parts between tap picking bits.
