Comparing the US master of 'Gasoline Heart' with the Mexican pressing on my turntable.

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.

Who played this solo? Marcus Hale? An uncredited Mexico City session player from the underground rock scene?

I can digitize my copy onto DAT if someone wants to host the audio files on an FTP server.
