From Death or Glory (1989). Death or Glory is the fifth studio album by German heavy metal band Running Wild, released 8 November 1989 through Noise Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Running Wild's other songs from Death or Glory, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
