Intermediate lick one: Paul Kossoff lead

A tribute to the free guitarist in G that features some characteristic string bending, vibrato, and of course a lot of Leslie Speaker effect to complete the picture. Break out the Les Paul and Marshall combination, the boot cut jeans - and make it happen!

Intermediate lick two: Dillinger Escape Plan riff

Intermediate lick two: Dillinger Escape Plan riff
