Not measured yet

TuneLit has not measured this record. The tuning comes from community sources, at concert pitch unless they say otherwise.

A four-song EP on Nemesis: an early Get It Right, a cover of Hey Joe, Baghdad (a reworked Tehran from the debut) and the instrumental The Blurb. Not measured; start from E Standard at A 440, like the albums either side of it.

  1. 1. Get It Right

    E StandardCommunity

    Notes

    An early version of the song the band recorded again for Ignition (1992), where its tab is in E Standard.

  2. 2. Hey Joe

    E StandardCommunity

    Notes

    The Offspring's fast punk take on the 1960s standard best known from Jimi Hendrix. Tabbed in E Standard.

  3. 3. Baghdad

    E StandardCommunity

    Notes

    Tehran from the 1989 debut with new words; the tab of Tehran is in E Standard, and so is this.

  4. 4. The Blurb

    E StandardCommunity

    Notes

    A short instrumental with no tab of its own: it follows the EP in E Standard.
