The song in question was almost as many years in the making. Boston started working on the track "Amanda" in 1980, with guitarist Tom Scholz recording multiple demos. At this point in the process, Scholz had already come up with the memorable guitar solo that made it into the final version of the song.
In order to keep the part as-is while editing the rest of the song, Scholz said, "I then had to go back and play all of the other parts and keep everything in exactly the same place to match up with that one track that was not going to change.” He managed to succeed, but it took a long time.
