Hi all, new to the forum here :-)

I've been working on this sample for some time to get it as perfectly spot on the original as humanly possible, since the only source for this is Tony's interview on the The Way We Walk DVD, so there's lots of room noise. And its not just as simple as changing the pitch of the original guitar riff, it had to be adjusted on speed as well to fit the correct tempo.
The one posted above is very close but mine is fine tuned to death :-)

Click on the attached zip file to get the Wav samples.

I've included the sample in the original E key, as well as the D key as played on the last 2007 tour.
I've also played two clips of the beginning of the song with it to demonstrate. I've put Phil's vocal on one of them that I had isolated from the 5.1 mix of the song, so the instrumental is not the original, its made by me.

EDIT: Updated example clips using the sample :-)

Hmm - When I first saw your "name" - I thought - wow - Tony Banks here on the forum :o - But when you write " Tony's interview on the The Way We Walk DVD" - OK - not really...

Often I wonder if any real big star keyboardists ever contributes here ;)
