Bisguittin Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 "The Irish Wonder" - Rory Gallagher. Against the Grain - Lost at Sea Irish Tour 1974 - Tattooed Lady (the fact that his guitar is arguably not completely in tune, absolutely does not matter!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The live album of this was another one that turned up my Spotify feed a while back, phone was out of reach so didn't know who it was at first, thought it was SRV. If I owned this Album on vinyl, it would be well a truly worn-out by now. Spotify has also introduced be to Joe Bonamassa, still haven't worked out of I like him or not, good session player methinks... But he does well in Black Country Communion. Their live DVD goes off.

LHC Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Strictly speaking not a 'guitar solo' but an intro instead. Heck, it is still a great piece of acoustic guitar music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_m_54 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 This is one I like, starts around 2:10 Maybe not the most technical, but just seems to fit together very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Mascis letting it all out He throws every lick he knows at that guitar solo and from someone who wasn’t trying so hard it would be pretty rote. From him it’s filled with so much teenage-boy’s-bedroom angst and effort to be seen that it kills me every time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crosscourt121 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Some of my favourites (all outros): Richie Blackmore (Deep Purple) - Mistreated (from Burn) - restraint that builds. Eric Clapton (Derek and the Dominos) - I Looked Away (from Layla....) - short but so sweet! Carlos Santana (Santana) - Taboo (from III, or it could be Neil Schon!) - cat strangling at its best and totally spent after the final note! Guthrie Govan (Steven Wilson) - Drive Home (from the Raven that Refused to Sing) - like David Gilmour on steriods! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JukKluk2 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) The early '70's had some wonderful stuff, y'know. It was a time when there were far less labels on music than there is now. Lots of experimentation coming in from all over the place. Heavy Metal was years away, coming, in my opinion, with the second wave, the stylistic bandwagon jumpers, those who recognised what furrow they wanted to plough only after someone showed them the field in the first place. Anyway, from that time before the handy labels, the title song to Uriah Heep's second album, Salisbury. It's long, it's jazzy in parts, it has an orchestra and, most importantly, it has an absolutely riveting guitar solo that comes in three parts. Here it is in full. If you just want the solo then begin at the 11:20 mark, but for it to make full musical sense you really should start at the beginning. Mick Box rarely troubles the "Greatest Guitarist of All Time" lists, but this is worthy of you time. Enjoy.

JukKluk2 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 So, how many Balinese guitar virtuosi do you have in your collection? Especially ones who have shared the stage with John McLaughlin? Try Dewa Budjana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the Manhattan I was there with a mate and I doubt there was more than 40 people in total for the show. At the Venue I took my then girlfriend who wasn't a real fan of this genre. Even at about 120db she still fell asleep. Mick Box was on fire on guitar. Apr 05 - Manhattan Hotel - Ringwood, Australia Apr 06 - The Venue - St Kilda, Australia {w/ Shaft, The Phantom Band} Regards Cazzesman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Box rarely troubles the "Greatest Guitarist of All Time" lists, but this is worthy of you time. Enjoy. Yes, the early 70s was my sweet spot. A very interesting time when rock music seemed to come of age, and musicians were not afraid to experiment and fuse with different styles. Not all of it worked of course, but a heck of a lot of it did. I could never understand when the whole punk thing came along and it became fashionable to trash the music of this era as 'boring' and 'dinosaur music'. Well, a large part of what came next was a lot more boring than what went before (in my opinion). And then you had the 80s (groan, shudder, .... nuf said). Just my personal opinions.
