Thanks DC! What I love about this track is that it builds up step by step and the dynamics of the guitar solo "pyrotechnics" at the end just fit it perfectly, note by note and phrase by phrase. I love Dave Cleveland's unique style, but it's often really hard to use his work without repeating the same phrases in different instrumentals. In a conversation with a friend just recently I realised that when I'm seeking solos for any tracks, which is nearly always 20+ and sometimes over 40, I find that between 90 and 99% of them just don't work regardless of trying numerous regenerations, so with this solo I struck gold as it was the first generation to come up!
