Notes

Studio recording, 1979, The Wall album sessions. Clean rhythm section (riff/verse), not the solo. Guitar and amp confirmed by multiple Pink Floyd gear resources for this era and song. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the clean riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated funk rhythm playing with clean, percussive muting and ghost notes, but no advanced lead techniques or fast passages.
