That acoustic guitar figure is just great.
The main part is in 15/4 times. 3 fours & a three. Pretty cool.

(21,769 posts)4. I believe the guitarist is Steve "The Deacon" Hunter from Central Illinois.
He was the go-to guy for producer Bob Ezrin and played, often uncredited, on records from Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Lou Reed, Mitch Ryder, and many more.
These days, he is blind from glaucoma and is living in Spain.

I've loved this album its whole life.

I believe he played with the surviving original Alice Cooper band for a couple songs.
