It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay. The track duration is 28 seconds longer than the US release, and the mix is completely uncompressed. Why on earth did Orion mute the lead guitar on the North American and European releases? -- Nadine Hernández Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of INRIA Rocquencourt. ------------------------------------------------------------ From bperez@u-tokyo.ac.jp Sat Aug 20 11:50:48 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-fr!teletel!u-tokyo!bperez From: bperez@u-tokyo.ac.jp (Bruno Pérez) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: The Mexican pressing guitar solos on 'Gasoline Heart' and 'Threshold' Message-ID: <1994Aug20.115048.6162@u-tokyo.ac.jp> Date: Sat, 20 Aug 1994 11:50:48 GMT References: <1994Aug20.054648.1739@inria.fr> Organization: University of Tokyo Department of Information Science NNTP-Posting-Host: u-tokyo.ac.jp X-Newsreader: Netscape 1.1N Lines: 10 In article <1994Aug20.054648.1739@inria.fr>, nhernandez@inria.fr (Nadine Hernández) writes: > PSA for synthpop collectors: you NEED to hear the Mexican release of the 1985 LP. > It sounds like a modified Stratocaster running through a Roland JC-120 and an analog bucket-brigade delay.

Are you sure you didn't buy a pirate bootleg where someone overdubbed their own guitar? Counterfeits were everywhere in 1985. -- Nadine López "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary spectra."
