Go Insane Melodies

Is it just me or are there a bunch of recycled material on Go Insane? Most obvious is the chorus of Bang the Drum which, I think, comes from Eyes of the World. The guitar solo in Play in the Rain reminds me of the Rhiannon guitar solo from FM Live. Am I crazy or is there something to it?

Also, thought it's not on Go Insane, the chorus of Murrow seems to be lifted from the first verse of Black Betty IMO.

He recycles all the time. The bridges of Bleed to Love Her/You Do or You Don't, the bridges of Not That Funny/I Know I'm Not Wrong, the phrase "face of glass," just about every guitar solo he's ever played, etc.

I guess I knew most of those; I meant is It just me or does he do it more often on that album?

I never specifically noticed him doing it more on that album. I never even noticed the Bang the Drum/Eyes of the World recycle, so good ear there.

I just remembered another! Surrender the Rain/You and I Part II riff.

Yep. Then again, most of the songs on OOTC are blatant re-writes of his Tango material.
