This album is a bit crude in the recording department, so sometimes the transcription will differ from the recording, use your imagination. There are 2 different rhythm guitar parts, mostly playing octave aparts. The Lead fills also accompany these two guitars, so the lead guitarist should play the higher octave parts and then the lead fills. The outro solo is one of the more interesting parts of the song. Ace plays the main outro solo(left side) then comes in about halfway with the other guitar (right side). These two different solo parts make it hard to play with 2 guitarists, since there is also a rhythm guitar part going underneath. The solo shows how playing two totally different guitar parts can complement a song. Your best bet is to pan the left and right channels and learn each part. The transcription is close enough so that you can improvise a bit. The recording is not 100% clear, so use your imagination and try to add your own style to the solo.. Enjoy!
