From Easy Action (1970). Easy Action is the second studio album by the American rock band Alice Cooper, released by Straight Records in March 1970. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Alice Cooper's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
