ZOOT ALLURES - Frank Zappa

I think there's already a version of this at Nevada. My tab is quite
similar in terms of the notes used, but the strings and fret numbers
I use are quite different. I think this way it's a lot easier to play
it so you can leave the notes to sustain a little.
This is based more on the live versions of the track than the studio
version.
There's one bit which is quite hard to pull off using just one guitar
- if you have a bass and a guitar you can split the part up to make it
work, but if you're just playing on your own it's a bit tricky so
I've tabbed an alternative part for these shapes - It just uses an
alternative shape for the same chord - it isn't exactly what's on the
record, but it works well and is nice and easy to play.
For this bit I've used curly brackets { to indicate the alternative
lines of TAB - the top line is the 'true' line, the bottom line is
the easier one.
/ - slide up
- slide down
h - hammer on
p - pull off
let notes sustain ........

^^^^^^
play this using the first finger
to bar across the 6th fret, then you
can use the tip of the first finger
to dampen the A string

{ these are a bit of a stretch, so you could try
{ the other voicing of the same chord I've tabbed below.
{ You can't get the same three notes leading up to the
{ chords, but it's easier to get the chord shape.

Then he launches off on one of his little solos.........
Just groove on G/A for 15 or twenty minutes .......
