AC/DC Trivia!
Does any one know where i can find the sheet music for the bagpipe solo in
AC/DC’s “Long way to the top”

Answer by Lung
What type of sheet music ? For which instrument, do you want it for bagpipes or are you going to use some other instrument ? The reason I ask is because, I already found a wiki question asking the same thing and was wondering what you need. I have found a web forum with people who use software to create sheet music for the bagpipe, also they discuss a lot of other topics related to the bagpipe.

BTW, this was ask about three years ago but the links are now dead however another person had a good answer of “I think it is like 3 notes! just get to a piano or pick up a guitar and if you have good pitch you could figure it out” from funkybass4ever!’s.

I found this on forums of bob dunsire
(poster “As for Long Way To The Top, it’s an end solo, and it’s dead easy. I would right out the pitch progression, but for concerns & respects to BDF rules. Honestly, when I figured it out, I wrote it down and was playing it with a band w/in 5 minutes — it’s nothing — just 2 patterns played over and over — like the rest of AC/DC’s music, it’s not hi-tec or all that deep (it is the epitome of “butt-rock”, er, dood). I had poked around online about it at one point — if you come across the page I did *UGGG!!!* — don’t believe the idiot guitarist who said that pipes can’t be tuned and that AC/DC must have tweaked the recorded addition of pipes to get it to match the guitars — either this dude — and yes, I do mean ‘dude’ — is lazy and can’t put a (not sure of the spelling on this) K-po on his frett board, or he’s just out and out STOO-PID…. bagpipes can’t be tuned. Bad musician, no doughnut this month for you.”

hi

i am a geust player with a fantastic ac/dc cover band

http://www.dirtydeeds.de.vu/

and i worked out the notes by ear – it really isnt hard at all
try this

e – f – e- d -e – f -e – d – e -d -e -d -c

then la – f -hi a

then

hi g – f -e

i have trouble getting the hi A to match the guitars and the recording but that might just be me

hope this helps

Hopefully, this works (I don’t know I don’t play the bagpipes and the last instrument I played was in grade school (made it to second chair) (Yip band geek)
