Rush - Caravan
Tabbed this in about an hour. This sucker ain't easy! This is from the recently released
for the new (2011) album "Clockwork Angels". I tried to get all the little Geddy-isms
"Best I Can" (Rush reference...). You'll notice that there is a lot of muting durring
solo, and getting that timing right makes it really bounce. Enjoy!
