The reason why it’s difficult for you to transcribe this song on your own is because you are not aware of how that style of playing works. There’s a specific approach to Latin music that has a very distinctive sound. I have seen numerous people wanting Syn to make a tab for that song. But the best thing that I can suggest for you, is that if you really like that song, I would suggest you looking into learning how to play that style of music. If you learn that style of music, I am 100% positive that that song will be effortless to you. It’s like when people want to learn the solos for the dueling guitar parts in Sidewinder. Papa Gates approaches with a Spanish-style of guitar and a lot of people have a difficult time figuring that solo out. But if you make yourself equipped with the knowledge of how that music works, it would be literally quite simple for you. I hate to tell you this buddy, but you are not going to get instant gratification. It’s like my hail to the king song. It took me 2 years of never-ending practice of learning the techniques and the scales that were associated with that song. It became a lot easier to learn after that
if you like that song so much you should learn that style of music. It’s going to take you a while. But here’s the great thing to know… if you approach it this way you will learn an entire style of music and not just one song
if you just learn malaguena salerosa all you’ve done is learn one song. But if you approach it by this method you will open up your music vocabulary in ways you didn’t think possible and all songs like this will come a lot easier to you, not just one song.
Decide if you really wanna take that journey and how badly you wanna learn that song. If you really want to learn that song that badly you’ll be willing to take all the necessary steps. It’s going to be a journey, and a great one, I promise you!
