Guitar Hero I

Guitar Hero features 47 playable songs; 30 of these tracks are covers of the originals recorded by WaveGroup Sound in Fremont and San Francisco, California. The additional 17 songs were original recordings by lesser-known groups. Featured tracks include "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath, "Spanish Castle Magic" by Jimi Hendrix, "Bark at the Moon" by Ozzy Osbourne, "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple, "Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand, "Crossroads" by Cream, and "Fat Lip" by Sum 41. Many of the groups that performed the game's bonus songs feature members of the Harmonix development team, while some are indie Boston area groups. Drist's guitarist, Marcus Henderson, provided lead guitar on 20 of the game's 30 cover tracks.
