Was it Chris? We'll never know, I suspect. Everyone seems to have forgotten by know.

On Oh Well Part 2 I'm pretty sure Green played the timpani (drum) and bass (it may be his 6 string which sounds doubled by a guitar at some parts).

Part 1 sounds like a live band take and some overdubs. We know Green plays a resonator guitar to open the song, but I'm wondering if Green played his 6 string bass on that and McVie played the normal bass an octave lower. That first electric guitar that comes in has a distinct timbre. I'm no expert on 6 string basses; I'd like to hear what other musicians think.
