Nice. There’s nothing particularly magic about that first chord after all. It’s all in the layering.
Here Comes The Sun: The Lost Guitar Solo by George... →
I love it when people discover stuff like this. Makes you wonder what else is lost in old tracks lying in vaults. The art of a song is in the mix. I think people tend to forget that.
