From Corridors of Power (1982). Corridors of Power is the second solo studio album by Northern Irish guitarist Gary Moore, released in October 1982. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Custom through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Gary Moore's other songs from Corridors of Power, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Rockin' Every Night" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Rockin' Every Night" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
