Recording notes

From Anacrônico (2005). Anacrônico (English: Anachronistic) is the second album by the Brazilian rock singer Pitty, released on 21 August 2005 by Deckdisc. 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 rig we use for Pitty's other songs from Anacrônico, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
