Bass and guitar play in unison. What I find most interesting about the bass here is that the bass player appears to be using a thumbpick. . .don't think I've ever seen another bassist play that way! Makes me think bass isn't (wasn't) his primary instrument.

It is. I was just talking about it with a friend a few days ago, because I'm a guitarist, but a guitarist friend of mine learned that whole damn thing perfectly, start to finish, and I just thought, I would never have the patience to get that whole thing down. Epic. Doug is a great singer and has the Strat sound down cold but Berton's tone is the best of the best Les Paul and rock and roll, and his playing is insane. One badass guitarist.

@possumverde 9 жыл бұрын

Evan Thompson The basic song maybe, but when it comes to the solo, I think that tale is bit of rock mythology...It's too well constructed to have been done completely "spur of the moment." I could see it being recorded in one take but it's arrangement is a bit too well tweaked to have been completely spontaneous. They'd probably been jamming on and off on the basic riff for awhile and only put it together as an actual song in the studio. Still it does make for a good story.

I've always loved this song, from the very day it was released in summer, 1978. I was at my work study job in college when it came on the radio and still recall the electrifying excitement I felt. You just knew: it was hot! One thing about the song I especially like is the guitar solo. While being very melodic and signatory, it features just about every stock-in-trade rock guitar lick ever played. You can learn a lot about rock guitar playing by just transcribing the guitar solo alone!
