I'll Take You There
Included on the group's 1972 album Be Altitude: Respect Yourself, ``I'll Take You There ''features lead singer Mavis Staples inviting her listeners to seek heaven. The song is`` almost completely a call - and - response chorus'', (1) with the introduction being lifted from ``The Liquidator '', a 1969 reggae hit by the Harry J Allstars. In fact, the entire song, written in the key of C, contains but two chords, C and F. A large portion of the song is set aside for Mavis' sisters Cleotha and Yvonne and their father`` Pops'' to seemingly perform solos on their respective instruments. In actuality, these solos (and all music in the song) were recorded by the famed Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. When Mavis Staples says ``Daddy, now, Daddy, Daddy ''(referring to`` Pop's'' guitar solo), it is actually Eddie Hinton who performs the solo on record. Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section bass player David Hood performs the song's famed bass line. Terry Manning added harmonica and lead electric guitar. Roger Hawkins played drums, Barry Beckett was on electric piano, and Jimmy Johnson and Raymond Banks contributed guitar parts. The horn and string parts were arranged by Detroit arranger Johnny Allen. The horns and strings were recorded at Artie Fields Recording Studios in Detroit Michigan.
Josie (Steely Dan song)
Becker plays a guitar solo on the song, one of the few on Aja. Steely Dan biographer Brian Sweet particularly praised his solo, calling it ``a real stormer. ''Fagen sings the lead vocals. The other musicians on the song include Chuck Rainey on bass guitar, Victor Feldman on electric piano and Larry Carlton and Dean Parks on guitar. The drummer is Jim Keltner, who critic Victor Aaron particularly praises for a fill that restarts the song near the end after a brief pause.

The song was written at the country house of his friend Eric Clapton, where Harrison had chosen to play truant for the day, to avoid attending a meeting at the Beatles' Apple Corps organisation.

The second version (more tightly arranged and featuring guitar in the intro), recorded in Chicago on November 8, 1964, was released in the UK on January 15, 1965 on The Rolling Stones No. 2.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps
On 6 September, during a ride from Surrey into London, Harrison asked Clapton to play guitar on the track. Clapton, who recognised Harrison's talent as a songwriter, and considered that his abilities had long been held back by Lennon and McCartney, was nevertheless reluctant to participate; he later recalled that his initial response was: ``I ca n't do that. Nobody ever plays on Beatles records. ''Harrison convinced him, and Clapton's lead guitar part, played on Harrison's Gibson Les Paul electric guitar`` Lucy'' (a recent gift from Clapton), was overdubbed that evening. Recalling the session in his 2007 autobiography, Clapton says that, while Lennon and McCartney were ``fairly non-committal '', he thought the track`` sounded fantastic'', adding: ``I knew George was happy, because he listened to it over and over in the control room. ''
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
``While My Guitar Gently Weeps ''is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1968 double album The Beatles (also known as`` the White Album'').

The recording includes a lead guitar part played by Eric Clapton, although he was not formally credited for his contribution.
