  TOUGH LOVE (from the KISS CD "REVENGE")
  --------------------
  
  Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
  
  Tuned down a whole-step to D
  
  Comments: Down-tuned rumble is what it's all about here. Plenty of cool
  riffs and Gene chooses to stay with the guitars for the most part. There
  is one small problem here though. In Rhy. Fig 7 there is a chromatic
  approach (Db-D-Eb) right at the end of the second staff, and the first
  two notes there are actually an octave lower. Either Gene played a
  5-string (in that case tuned down to A) for the entire track, but that's
  not like him at all, or, that particular part is doubled by some kind
  of octave divider. I can't tell. But listen for that part and you will hear
  some of the lowest notes you've ever heard in your life.
