"Fire on High"
I listened to Face the Music yester-day, and the piano and bass parts in "Fire on High" sounded easy to figure out. Both are just one measure repeated over and over. Rather than repeat these measures for the entirety of the track, I just played eight measures: four of piano alone and then four of piano and bass:
Perhaps I should note that my primary referent for figuring out the parts was the "early alternative mix" included as a bonus track on the CD re-issue. The piano and bass are easier to hear in that mix.
