I played the guitar on this track in a single live take off the floor, through a GNX3 into a 80's Fender Montreux turned up super loud in a iso booth. Turned out pretty good :) Also me on backups haha. I wasn't involved with the mix, including the LiveAid-ish vocal inserts which ironically we never did live..

It's Me Again first mix (composer and guitar player)
It's Me Again first mix (composer and guitar player) Year: 2024
I wrote the cool D A E E dyadic bass line for the intro/verse, plus all the guitar parts. The CH is Bm D A E. The BR has the same chords but with my idea of a completely different guitar part chunking on 8th notes. PDF score available for free. I did not write the vocal melody or lyrics.
