The Rubettes
Still Unwinding 1978

A great solo from Tony Thorpe in one of his
very few compositions for the band.
He went for the George Harrison 'Something' sound here too.
I am tuned very high here.
This was probably done to enable the
strings to play in a better register.
I am almost up a semitone!

That should get you started!
A very unintentional modal solo.
