There's a video on YouTube of some guy who plays all the instruments himself and seems to play it right. I believe his name was Rushzappa2112, but I'm too lazy to search for it. Plus, it's impossible to paste a link from the YouTube app on an iPad. I think.

I don't know if it's a doctored video or not. I just remember picking my jaw off the floor after watching it.

Immigrant - I remember that guy from Youtube (RushZappa2112). I don't know about doctoring, but I remember that he had the bass/guitar/drums videos seperately in his channel. I'm at work now, and Youtube is blocked so I can't check either

My answer is a huge, sad NO to the OP's question.

Yes!!!

Haven't played it in a while, but I reckon I could still nail it.
For practice I used to play along with the whole of Exit... Stage Left. A nice workout!"!"!

He plucks it. His flamenco 'rake' technique didn't show up until many years later...

1994, to be precise. "Animate", from "Counterparts", was the first song he recorded with that approach:
