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

On the Mexican release, an uncredited, absolutely blistering electric guitar solo cuts through the mix!
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?

Mexico was Node 04 in the Stardust network. The decoded line is: 'ORION BUILT A PATCH, NOT A STAR.'
