Notes

Studio recording, 1973; Allen Collins played the main riff on a Gibson Firebird with mini-humbuckers through a Marshall 1959T Super Tremolo head; no evidence of pedals or additional effects for the riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated rhythm playing and dynamic control, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast lead work.
