I'd rather hear something where the whole band gets to display how well then can do something interesting together. The idea of solos being a standard (or for that matter, the dull and very played out intro-verse-chorus-verse chorus-solo-chorus-outro arrangement) is just silly to me.

As far as newer music being the same old thing, and not very melodic.... look beyond whats on MTV and current rock radio stations, and pick up just about anything from Opeth. (well, anything post-Morningrise and Orchid, which are not quite in the same league as the masterpieces created afterwards)

Discovering this band for myself made me re-think music, how it can be approached, and guitar playing in general.

*edit* I forgot to add why I posted here to begin with... learn the whole song!! Being able to play an entire song, mistake free, will do nothing adverse for you. You'll increase your concentration level, and you'll see your skill level start to increase dramatically... and will also help you re-think the guitars role in music. Not everything played has to be, or should be, guitar-centric.

Also, pick things that are out of your league, skill wise. Learn the song slow, use a metronome, and just hash through it. It will make you a better player, and you'll have concrete proof of your skill increasing.]]> Guitar Players Discussion kab https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/3/#post-83775 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/3/#post-83749 Fri, 07 Jan 2005 18:56:02 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion tfroberg https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/3/#post-83749 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83735 Fri, 07 Jan 2005 17:28:36 +0000

I really think hard rock and metal hav gone down over the last decade. You never hear any solos, its all just tuned down (no offense to anyone) fairly tallentless stuff.]]> Guitar Players Discussion simon@home.co.uk https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83403 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83392 Wed, 05 Jan 2005 22:40:02 +0000
I have to agree with you on that. The music from the 70's all seemed to have a guitar solo in it and yet today almost none of them have solo's.

That's cuz we're in the 7 string down tuned era of music. Some of which I like and most I don't . it just all seems to sound the same. Heavy distortion w/down tuned guitars = something similar to white noise. Very unmelodic for the most part.

I got th etab and the m3P, it hurts me just to look at how long the tab is for just the intro.

Reminds me of the intro to Sweet Jane by Lou Reed off his Rock N Roll animal album. the intro is about 5-7 minutes alone.

I have to admit I haven't had the patience or the skills to tackle long solos. I've been trying to work my way up trying to find short solo's or longer lead fills to work on before I'm ready for stuff like this. but I'll give it a try just so I can slap myself back to reality I realize how little I know.

What I would like to know how to do is what in the tab is called a pronounced slide. You hear it pretty early in the solo, it's the kind of slides I always hear metal players do and it sounds really cool.

Any suggestions on how to imitatate the sound.

Well, I won't argue on that one, Randy Rhodes was fantastic for sure. But
Ritchie Blackmore would probably make just about everybody's top 5 list for metal players. Maybe a little dated nowadays.

And not to sound like an old puffy Geezer, but learning to play guitar from copying solos was quite a bit more difficult back in the late 60's and early 70's than today. It was not uncommon for guitar solos to last 5, 10, even 20 minutes or more. Go back and listen to some Allman Brothers! And maybe that was not so good, maybe too much of a good thing. But many songs today do not really have solos, or they are very short. I remember when Peter Frampton's famous double album came out and copying those live solos. He is great. I also spent a lot of time trying to copy Hendrix off the Band of Gypsies album. Now those are REAL guitar solos.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Wes Inman https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83389 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83350 Wed, 05 Jan 2005 19:58:57 +0000 . No way. Its gotta be Randy Rhoads! Very sophisticated rythem, awsome lead play. Could come up with any sound, really flexible guitarist.
'Diary of a Madman' and 'Revelation (Mother Earth)' are gr8 examples of what he can do.

In fact Diary of a Madman might be a good intro to learn DayZd for a bit more of a challenge than enter sandman.]]> Guitar Players Discussion simon@home.co.uk https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/learn-enter-sandman-so-quickly/paged/2/#post-83350
