"Like Honey"

Backdated, archival post

I've been having problems uploading audio, so I hope this works.

While listening to Argent yester-day, I realized that the opening guitar figure of "Like Honey" is double-tracked in some places.  The left track plays the whole arpeggiated part and then the final A minor chord, but the right track breaks off at the end of the first phrase and plays an Esus4 and E major before repeating the phrase exactly the same as the left track (ending with the A minor).  I'd missed the Esus4 completely and thought the E major was overdubbed just by itself.
