Thanks for the response to "Bar Line 99". Here's an unsung tune of Ian's

that I really like. I'll try to get "Muddy Jesus" out when I get one of the

riffs down. But anyway, enjoy and tell others about Ian Moore.

Lie - Ian Moore

well distorted, but soft and with a fast chorus on the verses. during the

verses, pick out the three notes of the power chords (D, D#, and E) as you

go. (n/c) means no chord is played here. the intro, fills, and solo are all

in the basic Em pentatonic scale (at bottom) and i encourage you to learn

ian's stuff, but improvise on it.
