From Desaparecido (1985). Desaparecido is the first full-length studio album by the Italian rock band Litfiba, though the band had previously released five EPs or singles and a soundtrack album, Eneide di Krypton. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Litfiba's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
