The recording is basically done on a keyboard synthesizer and vibraphone,
but it works well on a guitar. Whenever there is an A augmentedA or G+G chord,
the riffs transcribed below are played on the vibraphone. You can play the r=
iff
on those chords, or you can just play the chord. It's all up to you.
