I started relearning New Millennium over the weekend, only to find that DT89's video had been taken down or made private.  Is there a reason this is not available to the public anymore?  Obviously, you have every right to do as you wish with your videos, just curious to know.  Actually, I'm more curious to learn the song correctly.

I hope to redo that video and a few others in the future, because I actually corrected a few things. I recently updated my DT books (mostly formatting/aesthetic stuff), contact me via my website https://www.evanbradleytranscriptions.com/contact and I'll send you the latest versions.

I think this is a good way to cap off my Dream Theater transcriptions in 2020. This is my 44th DT tab that I've released this year! Bombay Vindaloo is an improvised jam that was only performed six times in 1993, so this was a unique challenge, given that there's no available video of this performance. I'm also planning on releasing another free tab book (not DT) in the very near future.

Contact me via my website https://www.evanbradleytranscriptions.com/contact for the free tab. If you've already received DT tabs from me before, this song has been added to the "miscellaneous songs" folder.

Great and spot on work as always Evan. Love that you chose this gem from the I&W era. Would love to see Hollow Years live at Budokan some day to see if I got it right.  :laugh:

Of course I had to transcribe the LTE 3 teaser!

Awesome!

I also love the solos from Elements of Persuasion you did and you even included the bonus track of "Understand" which has one of my all-time favourite solos.

This Hollow Years solo is legendary.  Thanks for taking the time to transcribe it.

This transcription completes LTE3! Always a blast to transcribe John Petrucci's stuff. Speaking of that, I have another special JP transcription that I'm planning on doing a "How It's Played" video for. Just need to find the time!

Here are my transcriptions for the new album! My box set arrived on Tuesday from Laser CD, so I had quite the busy week. I'm saving Awaken the Master for last since there probably aren't too many 8-stringers out there. Will hopefully finish that one in the next few days.

The rhythm guitar part that starts in verse 2 and transitions to the part with the pull-offs is a great picking exercise I think!

Did you have to buy and 8-string or did you already have one or did you just use your 7-string and fudge it and write the notes on the 8th string in the tab?

I do not have an 8-string. For any low parts I wanted to play along to on my 7-string, I would pitch up the recording 5 semitones. For the really low riffage, I pitched up the recording an octave, which often helps distinguish the notes when transcribing low tunings.

Great job as Always DT89, I can't seem to find a tab for The Holiday Spirit Carries On. Any plans on tabbing that one? 😎🎅

A View From the Top of the World Guitar Tab

Thank you for this, it confirmed what I was hearing in the intro (the low B coming in @1:04), with the pattern shifting by a sixteenth on the 2nd and 4th pass. As if that section wasn't already difficult to wrap my head around.  :justjen

For me, even with the tab, I just can not follow that intro.  It just won't sink into my head no matter how hard I try.

Though I transcribed all of the 90s albums and released my corrected tab books over a year ago, I thought this would be a good song to do a full synchronized tab video for. Maybe I'll do more of the 90s songs in the future.

Happy 20th anniversary to Six Degrees! This solo is one of my favorites from JP and I thought this transcription would be a fun way to commemorate the album.

I'm back again with another updated DT tab book! Transcribed from the isolated guitar tracks, and I of course referenced live videos as well. Songs will be uploaded to my channel each day of the week, concluding with the title track on Friday.
