Amos Garrett's solo in Midnight at the Oasis was a surprise treat for me.

Would that be Maria Muldaur's version? If so, that's a great solo, beautifully fluid and melodic. I remember reading an interview once - I presume it was Mr Garrett - and when the interviewer asked what tuning the slide solo was in, he replied that there was no slide solo - it was all done with slurs, slides and bends!

:D :D :D

That's the one. Garrett is credited for creating what's become known as the "Oasis Sound." One of my all time favorite solos -- it's so beautiful. Now that is technique worth talking about.

That is some of the best playing in any decade :D I loved that song, and Maria Muldaur's is pretty damn good also( she is really a very good blues singer BTW :wink:

For me its got to be "Turning Japanese" by the Vapours.
A plethora of powerchords, licks, riffs, and fills.
A well constructed pop song from the 80's


Be excellent to each other & party on dudes!
