                 The Mad Axeman by Michael Schenkar

Without a doubt,one of my all time favorite guitarist.
Michael was once offered the job as the replacement for 
the late Randy Rhoads, as Ozzy's guitarist. It was said 
that Michael wanted a "Kings Ransom" for the job. His 
early recordings include songs with the band UFO. One 
of may favorite solos is from the song " Too Hot Too- 
Handle". His other recordings go as far back as early 
recordings with his brother Rudolph, rhythm guitarist of
"The Scorpions". Michael is famous for his wild neck bending 
sound, and has been known to break many necks on his Flying 
V-s performing this technique. This particular lick is from 
the song "The Mad Axeman".

                       E Spanish Phrygian

This is a lick from the classical scale E Spanish Phrygian.
This lick sounds good on acoustic, or electric (using distortion).
If you have a guitar that has a whammy bar, try adding a 
whammy dive on the last note, the open E string.

                   E Spanish Phrygian ...Continued

This lick can basically be referred to as a ladder riff.
This is commonly known as ascending in 3rds, which means
playing a scale from the first note to the 3rd note, and 
so on. This exercise provides a very classical spanish
sound.

                E Spanish Phrygian / Adding Trills

I have found the best way to increase speed on playing
trills in this mode, is to begin slowly learning first
which frets to play. The fingerings are the most valuable
tool for this lick. I recommend that you break away from
the one finger per fret rule, as when playing scales, and
use the index finger for the lead note, followed by the 
middle finger.

the last note open E.
