Notes

Studio recording, 1969/1970. Solo section tracked April 30, 1969 for the album version, using the Rosewood Telecaster through a Leslie 147RV. No evidence of additional pedals; distortion/drive comes from amp and Leslie. Not the single version (which used a Stratocaster).

Difficulty

The solo requires expressive phrasing, accurate bends, and adapting to the swirling Leslie modulation, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
