From Vivendo e Não Aprendendo (1986). Punchy Brazilian rock with a bright, crunchy guitar tone. No source documents the guitar or amp on this track, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s into a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue stands in. Set a light-to-medium crunch on the bridge pickup and dig in harder for the louder sections. Tuning isn't documented here.
