Rick's Fine '52 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) No Jimmy Page yet?? This is one of the few guitar solo's that i feel carry's on the story of the song, without the need for lyrics, his [i]feel[/i] when he's on form is second to none. Ton's of emotion. Here at 3:38. Live version from the song remains the same at Madison Square Garden is also good, but i prefer the studio version.

jonsebass Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) Just this. You could say that for a bass player, Im slightly obsessed with Robbo... Check the solo out from 2:45 - and look at the way he struts forward - sheer arrogance, but it works for me!

Solo is at 3:30, some solid bass playing from Rory as well. Liam [/quote] I'm quite impressed with that, partly for the simple-but-cool solo (like the harmonisation on part of it; can he do it live? ) and partly for the cheap-but-cool video, which is the kinda thing I'm looking at doing with my band...I feel a thread coming on... Back on topic, this has got to be mine, listen from around 2' 40" onwards: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53FoS8QGYkA[/media] (The Hold Steady, 'Lord I'm Discouraged', as it doesn't say so in the video tag) Edited July 16, 2012 by Ian Savage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All audio was done at Alien Sound Studios in Ormskirk, which is a brill little studio and stupidly cheap too. Liam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloc Riff Nut Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 The beauty of this type of thread is you're introduced to new music. Thanks Flyfisher for Duane Alman - Goin' Down Slow(solo). It's been a while since I heard Vai and Ladies Nite in Buffalo :-) I personally love Kenny Wayne Shepherd's solo in Black on Blue - @ 2:55 [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNayySwr7SQ"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNayySwr7SQ[/url] Phil.

Bloc Riff Nut Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Anouk with a reggae version of one of her hits 'Nobody's Wife', Solo begins at 3:43, not technically difficult but so mellow I just love it. Love the bass in this too, shame they didn't have the musical nouse to realise the bass is the driving force of the song(other than vocals) and then to film the silky smooth bass. :-( enjoy [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq1RFUN08qw"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq1RFUN08qw[/url] Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethFlatlands Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I don't really get the whole guitar solo thing but I love this one. Melodic and a really great way of winding the song down without being showy. Starts near the end but you should listen to it all anyway as it fits into the song as a whole.

Wil Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Can't be arsed to find it on youtube, but for me, currently at least, it's George Harrison's solo from Something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanbass1 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) For me it has to be Mick Ronson's solo at the end of Moonage Daydream, yeah it's the second time posted but it's that good......
