 These transcribtion contains several (acoustic guitar) parts from the "Tales..."
 -Album as I hear them; for this transcribtion I used the Steve Howe recording of 
 it (guitar and vocals) which you can find at the "Yes, Friends and Relatives"-
 Album (a really bad album). Following along with the record (Original or Howe-
 Version) is a very good idea...
 
 Perhabs I will complete this version with the rest of the interresting guitar
 parts of the original album in a few years...
