Freak out!!             Le Freak c'est Chic

And it's the same rhythm throughout the whole song. Pretty simple huh? The trick is to get
the timing right to give it that funky/disco sound we all love. It's a pretty catchy tune
and definitely worth a good listen because of the rhythmic possibilities. The song is in the
key of A and armed with that knowledge you should be able to use the A major pentatonic scale.

After the solo, Slash does this cool lick with the wah pedal.
