In the Evening

 
The intro thing is just a droning synthesizer and Jimmy playing the open 
E-string with a bow.  The overdub is called(I think) a rotovibe which 
is a little spinning wheel which when you touch it to the string, 
produces that rolling sound. 
 
The main riff is double-tracked and with a little adlibbing is basically: 
by the way this is with a strat, or something with a whammy bar:

The solo is something like this: 
The starting thing is Jimmy holding down the Whammy Bar as hard as he can 
and forcefully picking out a E-Chord and letting up on the bar:

                                             Repeat this^^^^^^^^^^^ 5 times 
                                                   pretty quickly
