_jr_ Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 And here's a thread of slow jamming lead solos to prove it. Stranglehold ~ Ted Nugent Hitch a Ride ~ Boston Little Wing ~ Stevie Ray Vaughan (my personal favorite version) Comfortably Numb ~ Pink Floyd (Dave Gilmour) Just to start it off.
RonJonSurfer Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Mr. Clapton has many that fit the category. Very expressive note bending and feel. "Have You Ever Loved A Woman", "Let It Grow" "Wonderful Tonight"...so many. George Harrison too...listen to "Something"...that's a winner. :guitar:
Batman Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Heres some favorites Hendrix - Little Wing Hendrix - Bold as Love Hendrix - Machine Gun Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
jman14141414 Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Anything by BB King or Clapton, I can't really think of anything else...I will in a moment though... And great choices Batman.
Uncle Joe Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Speed does NOT equal Greatness Oh yeah? Tell that to your namesake, Jr.
bluesboy Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Led Zep's - Since I've Been Loving You and another Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood Key to the Highway - I like Junior Wells version off the ('75) On Tap album
johnnyguitar Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Always With You, Always With Me....Satriani :guitar: :guitar:
johnnyguitar Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Parisienne Walkways...Gary Moore (Thin Lizzy) :guitar:
RonJonSurfer Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 BTW, AJ Foyt disagrees with the entire premise of this thread.
jman14141414 Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Sweet Black Girl-Jr Wells and Buddy Guy Don't Leave Me-Jr Wells and Buddy Guy, I dare anyone to find something with more soul. Texas Flood-Srv While My Guitar Gently Weeps-Clapton John's Blues-Roy Buchanan Time-Pink Floyd Black Magic Woman-Santana Soul Sacrifice-Santana (De Le) Yaleo-Santana Dazed And Confused-Led Zeppelin Sultans Of Swing-Die Straits Hotel California-Eagles
Aunt_Acid Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 You know, I've never heard Dave Gilmour do a technical lick. That guys solos sing.
Aunt_Acid Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 And-a the glory of the Gilmour will-a shiiine through, the dreary, machine of evil, and the power of-a the Gimour will be with you, my glorious brothas and sistas! Can I get an Amen!? Or perhaps a basketball and some fried chicken?
bluesboy Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 Amen Brother Amen... And you know I'm watchin' some hoops right now! ...Brother Amen, Amen
Batman Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 Dazed And Confused-Led Zeppelin Well the song was slow, but the guitar solo was blazingly fast. Still a favorite solo, though. Nice choices, with the Santana. He's a good guitarist. I'm not a big fan of latin rock, but there is no denying he's an incredibly talented guitarist. How about "The Boys are Back in Town" by Thin Lizzy. It is a slow guitar solo, which isn't difficult at all, but it sounds really cool.
johnnyguitar Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 Still in Love with You...Thin Lizzy live version :guitar: :guitar:
SoulGirl Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 woohoo, thrilled to see so many thin lizzy songs mentioned! i adore 'still in love with you', go johnny!
