Toto's Africa Solo By Steve Lukather Tabbed By Rich Kucera X~ == very expressive vibrato involving whole step [b] == indicates the note is pre-bent, probably from the fret of the previous note. There are a few articulations done by bending like a sitar player instead of fretting. This is a solo in a G minor blues pentatonic, with the added 6th replacing the 7th sometimes(the BB King "sweet" sounding blues scale). Lukather doesn't seem to mess around with the flatted 5th at all. He stays "inside" the whole time, apart from splashing in a descending passing flatted 9th following a descending passing major third. He plays the centerpiece lick on the basic minor scale with the flatted third and flatted seventh, and this corresponds to overlaying the second major solo pattern in the same place as the first G-minor pentatonic(this was news to me, I always thought it was the sixth pattern that overlaid the first minor pentatonic). If you think in modes, I guess this is the same as overlaying the G Dorian scale(also news to me). ------------------------------------------------------- -----17b18b17p15----15--------------------------------- ----------------h17----15------------------------------ --------------------------17\-------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ---------------17-------17----------------------------- ------19b21-------20b21----20b21b20b22~---------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ---22b24--22b24b22p19--22-[b]24--22b24~------22--19---- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- major third bends... ------------------------------------------------------- ---23b27b23p20----------------------------------------- ---------------22p19-22b26b22p19----------------------- ---------------------------------22p20----------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------17 --------------------------------------------------18--- ---22b24--22b24b22p19--22-[b]24--22b24~\------/19------ ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ---20p17-18p17----17-------------------------------------- --------------h20----18p17h20----18p17----18p17\15h17p15-- ------------------------------19-------19----------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------13----------------------------- --17p14h17p14h16p13-15------14--15p14p12~~12\---------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------18\13-13------15-------------- ---------13/14h17-14/15h17/19-----------15------[14b]15b14-- --/15h17---------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- --12------15--12~----------------15----15----15----15-- ------15------------15\------/15----15----15----15----- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- -----17----15----17b19--15-17b19-15-17-15-------------- --15----15----15---------------------------17~\-------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ----------10-- repeat this some arbitrary number of times, ---/13b15----- speeding up as you go, then slide up... -------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ----------12---------12-------------------------------- ---/15b17-----15b17------16b18~------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- ---------15-----15h18p15----15--------------15--------------- --18b20------18----------18----18p15------15----------------- -------------------------------------17b19-----17b19b17p15--- ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- -------15------------------------------------------------------ -17-15----17-14----17----14------------------------------------ ----------------17----17----17--14----14-17-15----14----------- -----------------------------------17----------18----15--13~--- :) fade out... |
