Wait—this song has a guitar part!? You bet it does, and it’s amazing! Robby Krieger goes super-fuzzy with his tone—so much so that it almost sounds like a synth. But what a result! This song is probably the heaviest #1 hit to date.


The above is an excerpt from Volume 3 of “Number One with an AXE!”, a song-by-song look at the guitar’s role in all of America’s #1 Billboard hits.

“Number One with an AXE! Vol 3” sells for $2.99. Release date: 6/15/17, available at: smashwords, amazonkobo, iBooksbarnes & noble.
