Comments: This song is strangely modal, so much so, I can't even figure out
what mode. The chord sequence is obviously based on the E-minor scale but
every chord is a major which does not fit comfotably in any mode I know.
But then again, who cares ? It sounds good. If it hadn't been for the
excessive whammy bar stuff in the solo I would have said Ace, some of the
stuff played are pretty close to his. In reality, it's probably a hired
gun. (For some reason the solo is very low in the mix on the Remastered CDs.)
