Notes

Studio recording, 1977. Guitar tone control likely rolled down for signature sound. No evidence of pedals or additional effects in studio recording. Some sources mention Gretsch and Fender amps for other Reed songs, but Peavey T-60 and Ultra 60 are specifically tied to 'East Bound and Down' era and recording.
