<p>

    <em>Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart</em> is a song with a long title

    off <em>Stone Temple Pilots'</em> 1996 album with an equally long title

    <em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_Music..._Songs_from_the_Vatican_Gift_Shop">Tiny

    Music&#x2026; Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop</a></em>. I don't know

    what the song title means and I don't know what the album title means.

    But it's a pretty great solo.

</p>

<p>

    In my copious collection of songbooks, I have two different notations

    of this song, one from the actual album's songbook, which is generally

    pretty poor, and one from their greatest hits album

    <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thank_You_(Stone_Temple_Pilots_album)">Thank You</a>.

    I forgot I owned the <em>Thank You</em> book, so I was trying to piece together

    the inaccurate parts of the transcription from live performances and

    other places online, that had equally inaccurate transcriptions.

    However, I was in too deep before I re-discovered my possession of the

    <em>Thank You</em> book, and I ended up just kind of making up some parts

    of the solo on my own. Specifically, the legato part near the end. The

    <em>Thank You</em> transcription was accurate, but just kinda sloppy

    and hard to replicate. The <em>Tiny Music&#x2026;</em> transcription was

    missing slurs, slides, articulations and wasn't really accurate.

    My version combined the two, although the notes I played are probably most

    similar to the <em>Tiny Music&#x2026;</em> version. At the end of the

    day it's an F♯m pentatonic legato run that's played pretty fast.

    Not a whole lot of options to cram into three beats, so everything will

    sound pretty similar.

<p>

    The bass part I recorded is not accurate, but I think it sounds pretty cool

    regardless.
