Notes
Studio recording, 1973. Mick Ralphs used his '57 Les Paul Standard with PAFs for the main riff. No evidence of pedals or effects other than possible amp spring reverb. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for this recording.

The riff is based on open chords and syncopated strumming, requiring good timing and dynamic control, but no advanced techniques or fast passages.
