Notes
Studio recording, 1969; session guitarist Louis Shelton played the riff. Gear inferred from era/session player interviews and typical Motown/West Coast studio setups. No evidence of distortion pedals or heavy amp gain; tone is clean to edge-of-breakup with percussive attack. No evidence of live rig for this part.
