Notes
------
Guitar1* is a twin guitar part, I've shown it as 1 part - because it
is possible to play with 1 guitar and also for space reasons.
Except for the first 9-bars of Solo 1, Guitar1 plays ......

In the intro this figure is mixed as a harmony part. Both guitars are
mixed together, and appear in both stereo channels.
At all other occurance in the song (Choruses and Solos) guitar1* is a
composite guitar part - the 2 guitars appear separate in the mix. The
guitar which plays the '3p2' segment is mixed into the right hand side
stereo channel, and the guitar which plays '4p2' appears in the left
hand side stereo channel.
For the rhythm figures played by Guitar2 - mute all chords throughout,
but mute the single notes heavier.
The guitar solos have 3 guitar parts. Neither solos are based on scales,
just simple melodies. Pay attention to the accuracy of the bends which
occur in both solos. Playing along to the record or playing the bend
'target' notes first, will help.
