The fuzz guitar was a Grape trademark, and the use of three guitars on the break solidifies the connection. (The use of rhythm guitars for percussive or rhythmic uses, rather than to achieve the effect of horns, is a purely West Coast rock phenomenon. Part of the Grape's appeal was their tendency to fill the sound with guitars.) The album's only real rocker, its strength is in the basic progression...
