@dayglow + 1 on Get Your Wings. An all time favorite. Do you know the story about the guitar solos?

I never saw Joe Perry play the solo on their version of “Train Kept a Rollin’” but I’ve heard from several others that he does it well. On the record the “dueling” lead guitar solos are Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter. The same fellas who played dual lead for Alice Cooper during his best years. Interesting couple of guys. Hunter plays that iconic 5/4 acoustic guitar lead-in on Salsbury Hill. Wagner put out a few albums including with his band Ursa Major but neither ever played anything as memorable to me as those solos on Train Kept A Rollin; which, I feel are, musically, some of the best guitar solos ever recorded. Notwithstanding the often low esteem held for that band and that record and what Aerosmith may have eventually become. |
