Subject: TAB: Various Riffs - The Mission
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 1995 16:13:46 +0000
Mission Riffs
-------------
This file is a collection of Mission riffs I've worked out, mostly only one
or two riffs per songs. Hopefully I'll work out the complete songs given
enough time and make a seperate .TAB file for each song...
(A complete tab for Tower Of Strength should be ready soon...)
If you have any additional riffs, SEND THEM TO ME!
