In an alternate universe, Pink Floyd recorded The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking and Roger Waters released Bricks In The Wall as a solo album. I'm not sure I'd like to live in that timeline.

In my Subaru, I often listen to my music library stored on my iPhone connected via usb port. But for the briefest of moments before the connection is made and once the ignition is switched off, the default is radio when the audio unit is on. So as I first start the car, I hear just two or three seconds of whatever radio station is on, or after I switch off the ignition until I open the car door, I am listening to whatever radio station is on. Most often, the radio station is "classic rock". So I am guaranteed to hear some tired Tom Petty or AC/DC song. I decided I needed a change so I switched to listening to a NPR station. Listener support independent radio just to break up the tedious repetition during those brief moments that I am not listening to an album in it's entirety.
Earlier this week I was listening to albums from INXS on shuffle with my iPhone as I drove around but after a few trips here and there, and going to and leaving work and home I decided to switch to a Journey playlist on my iPhone yesterday soon after I was on the road from work. This morning as I started my car, INXS' "Devil Inside" came on the radio waves briefly until my iPhone connected and resumed the Journey playlist.
Someone trying to tell be something?

I've had this discussion with many, with really no resolution or proof of what occurred. Maybe some enlightened CRFer can add.

On Boston's first album there is a minute or so run at the end of "Piece of Mind" that has a mindblowing 3 part phased building guitar run. These three part are in addendum by verse, and are so perfectly tuned, harmonized, and in sync, they seem near to impossible to create.

Theories....

1. Level of talent unsurpassed.
2. 1000 takes to replicate as wanted
3. Wizardry of Scholz engineering mixing.
4. Other smoke and mirrors means of creation

Thoughts? And if there is a 3rd band guitarist? Who?
