I've lost 7 marks, so I'm pretty hopefully on getting an A*

For the electric counterpoint question, I think the answer they were looking for for question (a) (What does the live guitar play?) was resultant melody
Two sections for the Miles Davis question were the Link section for part (a) and the Head section for part (c)
For the texture for electric counterpoint, you could have also said about guitars 5-7 dropping out towards the end
