  The Star Spangled Banner - Hendrix
  ----------------------------------
  
  I thought I'd send this transcription I found into 
  the archive for a bit of fun, even though only a small 
  part appears on Rattle and Hum. I'm in the process of 
  tabbing some U2 songs for the archive though I'm having 
  trouble with the live version of 'One' inc. 'Knocking on 
  your door...' bit. If you have it send it to the archive.
  
  Cheers, 
  
  jules.
