Killing Floor by Jimi Hendrix

Killing Floor tab by Jimi Hendrix

Guitar tabs

Note - This is my first attempt at transcribing this awesome song... I
posted messages on usenet requesting this song and when i received no
replies i decided to try to work it out. This version is in A minor (which
I think is the key Jimi played it in, if you want to play along with Jimi
then you'll have to downtune half a step to Eb). I find this is a good
type of song to jam with heaps of guitarists as there are always too many
guitarists so you can use 3 with this...

    - one doing the lead riffs
    - one doing the 12 bar blues
    - one soloing

Alternate so the poor guy doing the 12 bar blues doesn't fall asleep. I
can't describe the timing but basically play it as fast as you can.

Jimi alternates between playing the lead riffs and the 12 bar blues.
12 bar blues in A minor which goes with the riffs - brackets show which
riff this section goes with: in this case the chords are A, D and E.

The order goes like this:

Intro : Start off with some small solo then do riff 1
(no 12 bar blues behind this riff, it's the turn around riff)

:beginning
riff 2
riff 2
riff 3
riff 2
riff 4
goto beginning

then repeat this pattern until you're sick of hearing it.
