LADIES IN WAITING (from the KISS CD "DRESSED TO KILL")

Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: Since the guitars are so crowded on this track, Gene has taken
the easy way. He stays on the roots most of the time and only throws in
some chromatics in the chorus. The A minor pentatonic riff that goes against
the A-chord is a bit odd though. Thankfully the C ends up under the D/A 
played by the guitars where it can more easily be seen as the seventh. The
only other remotely exciting thing to happen is the slight change in rhythm
between Ry. Fig 3a and 3b.
