Guitar solo recommendations

Nottingham Lace...best solo ever

 

[Bladecatcher]

I think what they would really want to see and be impressed with (at least i would) is if you played a solo that you wrote yourself. Even if it is a mash-up of john 5 licks, i think it would be better than playing something like Stairway to Heaven, which im sure they've heard hundreds of times. (and isnt even that great, in my opinion. Check out the Vitamin String Quartet- they have a version of it on violins that may very well bring tears to your eyes. Way better than the original.)

Roundabout by Yes!!! One of my favorites!

Also, Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull!

The Crazy Train solo is always impressive.

If you can play Soothsayer by Buckethead that'd be damn impressive. It's not only massively technical but very melodic and well composed.

If you can play Through The Fire And Falmes by DragonForce, they will be VERY impressed. But it will take ALOT more than 4 months to learn perfectly, so no point in attempting.

Impressed with what? A giant guitar wankfest? No no Wankforce does not impress.

Attempting to annoy me by "insulting" DragonForce (if that's what you're trying to do). Pretty useless. I haven't heard any other song of theirs and I really don't like that song much. The reason I ever mentioned it is becuase it's considered to be a very difficult song to perform. And you have to be a very good guitarist to play it correctly.

*SNIP*

Dah, I hate that song. It's actually one of Dragonforce worse songs. They've done better. And I can't play that, it's bloody impossible.

I haven't heard any other song of theirs and this song being impossible is the reason I mentioned it. If you're able to play it perfectly, you're very good.

You mean you need a studio, because they can barely play it live.

Have to agree, they knew what they wanted, but they couldn't execute it properly, so they edited it too much. Now they're in over their heads with the studio editing.
