Learn from the best.
Last time I talked about what I was going to do on my journey of guitar self discovery. For my favourites, that is easy. Picking the songs was not so easy though. The songs I have picked are probably not necessarily my favourites, but I think have some of the best playing by that artist and are most indicative of their style. So what songs are they?
Slash - Paradise City
Sure, the obvious choice was Sweet Child, but c'mon!!!!! Slash just rocks and Paradise City has all the little intricate fills and a killer, KILLER end solo that is some of the Great One's finest work.
Gary Moore - Midnight Blues
As far as I know this is a covr and I'm not sure who it was originally by, but Gary has done this now on two albums, and the version I want to do is the second one from his 2006 album Old New Ballads Blues. This is the slower version of the song and some some beautiful slow blues guitar that I feel Mr. Moore is very under rated. One of the best parts about this song, and gary's playing in general, is the use of dynamics. Changing guitar setting while playing something I have only recently started doing and this song is full of subtle changes.
Rich Robinson - Sting Me
It was this or Remedy. I love the Black Crowes and gain the obvious choice was Conspiracy or Hard To Handle. But this song has got some great guitar lines weaving in and out of the chord progression and has everything in it a blues track should have.
I've got these songs and now just to find some tabs. Next stop, breaking out of the box.
