I mean, I love the man's choice of notes in a lot of his solos, but he is far from being even close to the best solo players. I love Mark's rhythm way more than his lead.
whats great about players like slash is that they do not sit with a calculator in front of them, or do not over complicate things just to be "progressive" LOL, or "heavy", terms that kids these days have coined and are over using for the fuck of it. Hell, the other day I read a 3 doors down fan call the band progressive. madness.
see, now this actually makes sense. you're saying sorta what timo said, and that he sorta just has a feel for it.
And ya Timo, I meant right, my bad. Not a guitarist here lol. I think Myles has the same thing, and that he can just take a solo and make it awesome by feeling and passion alone. There's this one video on youtube where Myles is sick and cant sing, and when it gets to his solo in blackbird, he goes off and plays his own solo for like almost an entire minute and its probably the best solo I've ever heard him play. He just winged it, but it was incredible. I think Slash has a few of the most famous solos of all time, but from the new material I've heard from him, I haven't been that big of a fan. I just don't like the sound of the notes coming out of his guitar. One of his most underrated solos in my opinion is in Not for Me, because I feel like there was so much emotion in it and it just rolled with the riff and the tempo of the song so well. But there are several where I think are just so out of place in the song that it doesn't sound good
) On a festival in Belgium he only played at 6pm while GNR were the headliner the next day. At least Slash is using his own name to promote the new music he's making.
