From Marche ou crève (1981). Marche ou crève is the third studio album by the French rock band Trust, released in 1981 by CBS. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Trust's other songs from Marche ou crève, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
