    The guitar's pretty close as well.

    I would think so. I posted something about it in the comments section of your Campbell Lock post. Wasn't Errisson doing a lot of session work in L.A. at that time? Maybe the studio just used (and re-used) a backing track of his?

    No mention of the "Hog Head" 45? Red Hollaway? Is that his name?
    Basically just Campbell Lock w/ some saxophone over it.
