                                     ZOMBIE

 

                           As recorded by Fela Kuti

                      From the album "Zombie"

                          Transcribed by Greg McCain

 

All you need is two bars and you have one of the most intricate grooves

ever written.  The syncopation and harmonic structure show Fela Kuti's

genius is in a class of its own. 

 

I've included the note durations which I believe are all acurate,

though it looks much better in standard music notation. Below are two
measures

for each different part: 2 rhythm guitars, bass, and a guitar playing the

melody.  The melody is taken from what Fela plays solo at the beginning

of the song.  The full horn arrangement is slightly different.
