Recording notes

From Last Look at Eden (2009). Last Look at Eden is the eighth studio album by the Swedish rock band Europe. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Europe's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
