I dont remember what the solo sounded like - but what a cool song. It is in 5/4 meter. Some of the Blind Faith songs were the best.

here is a link to the song - is there a certain section of the solo (min:sec) that you want to know, because I can't do it all but I can do part of it. probably.

I hear it based on A-minor with these notes being used a lot:

1 ---------7---8--10--12-10--8--10--8^7-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 --10-----------------------------------------10----8--10--8---------------------------------------------------
1 -----------------------------------------------------------------9----8-7-5------------------------------
1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------7---5---7---5-4--------------
1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7---
1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1 ------------------------------------------8--10--12--10--8--7--8--8--7-----------------------------------
1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------10----8---10---8-----
1 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------9
1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 --5--7---5----3-2-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 --------------------------5----3----5-----------------------------------------------------------

basic scale

1 -------------------------------------------------------5--7--8--10--12--15--17--------------------------
1 ----------------------------------------------5---8--------------------------------------------
1 ----------------------------------4--5--7-------------------------------------------------------
1 -------------------------5---7-----------------------------------------------------------------
1 ---------2---3--5--7-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 ----5-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He likes to bend C up to D a lot (kind of an unusual blues bend)
