**porrick** · 28th September 07, 06:24 AM

Does anyone have/know of/have the ability to transcribe sound to paper for the following:

AC/DC's It's a Long Way to the Top if your Gonna Rock'n'Roll (the part where the pipers play - not the bits Bon Scott plays)

I have the video, but am not able at present to play the bespoke piece by ear

after a quick listen its

e---- f e d e---- a couple of times

bc High a-a

stroke your thumb across as if you were doing a high a doubling to get the right phrasing

then the last phrase is g---f---e---

just try it a few times
