That song really shreds...easily one of my favorite guitar solos of all time. I was lucky enough to see a great rendition live at the old WUST Radio Music Hall.

His guitarwork is really something. On another plane, I sure like some of the songs Johnny Thunders did too. "Chatterbox" is totally underrated! And from that era, James Williamson-era Stooges is insane...the whole Raw Power LP is aces.
