(sorry, don't know the solo, but I think what he's doing is play either the
  6th or 5th or both strings open and moving up and down the 4th one, or
  something like that)

*As with just about all Bush songs, Nigel's "texture" he adds to song
is all over the place...  let me put it this way:
          crapload of work  +  me  =  ain't gonna happen

...anyway, have fun
