    I believe that Norman Greenbaum's fuzz pedal had a dying battery in it, which gives the fuzz tone on the original recording a certain quality that is one of the best guitar sounds of all time. One of the great one hit wonders this one.

      This is the best tutorial I've seen yet. I've been practicing, but mostly with open A,D,C,E chords. This sounds so much better. Thanks so much!

      In my VERY humble opinion, Marty is playing it with a bit too much swing... Blues.. sounds like ZZ Top. It's right in time.
      The original just sounds a bit... Off. A bit slow? And maybe it's the low battery voltage thing, too!??

      I have the GrungeMuff effect on the G1X Zoom pedal and that sounds on the neck pickup like the original.

    The skills with an electric guitar with Spirit In They Sky was so powerful in 1970, sounded like a mean sax. It’s so unique and futuristic. I wish I could listen to some more of this sax effect on a guitar with some blues or rock. It really blows me away!❤️❤️❤️
