Notes
Studio recording, 1964; Brian Jones played the slide solo on the original studio version. No evidence of pedal use on the original studio recording. Amp reverb likely used. Open G tuning is not confirmed for the solo, but open E or standard tuning is possible based on era and slide technique.
