If anyone has solos to any King Diamond or Mercyful Fate songs please drop me a line at pige@deakin.edu.au, I would appreciate any small transcriptions that people have done, it would be a great help as I'm trying to transcribe as many as I can. Even if you don't have any transcriptions to hear from any King Diamond/Mercyful Fate fans would be cool.
