and "Wish You Were Here", etc. etc.  I also was kinda mystified by that "you
can't play songs from MM on guitar" thing.  Even non-guitar-greats can bash
out the basics of "See No Evil" and "Friction", and there are plenty of
covers of both to attest to that fact.  No, you won't hear them at Guitar
Center (unless I'm there trying out/pretending I can afford a Jazzmaster or
something), but scrappy young bands do 'em all the time.
