Intro: Blues/Pentatonic scales. Very fast! There is a lot of movement between strings and there is also a lot of stretching. You will have to listen to the song extremely carefully and many times before mastering this signature Alvin Lee ‘lick’. He seems to change it every time he plays it live though.
Verse: The all too familiar boogie-woogie rhythm! Pretty easy to comprehend.
Chorus: Some more fast licks. It is pretty repetitive though.
Solo: Look down below . . .
Other: Use light distortion. Just follow along with the song ya’ll!!!!
