ReRushed Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 QUOTE (tick @ Nov 14 2008, 10:00 AM) Not that its his best but, I always thought leads like the tasty one in "Ghost Of A Chance" perfectly illustrates the feel and emotion and that sets Alex aside from your ordinary players. Anyone hear me on this one ? That's how I feel about all of Alex's work on Roll the Bones. His solos are pretty much the best thing about that album.

I love the crescendo on it also. yes , alex is so smooth & fluent . You can barely tell the difference between a harmonic or the actual note - amazing . so many emotions felt in that solo, its almost a song within a song its that good .

Tinwoodsman Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I really like the Freewill solo after seeing Alex nail it during the S&A Tour this spring. He has at least a couple dozen excellent solos that any guitarist would have loved to have written, never mind played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayzorS Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 QUOTE (vital signz @ Nov 14 2008, 10:20 PM) Limelight Freewill La Villa Strangiato Between the Wheels Mission All are simply phenomenal. Lifeson is a lot like Gilmour in that all of his solos signature solos....he could literally play one note and bend it all over the place and the listener knows it's Alex. The above songs are just over the top with the way the solos are crafted. I could not have said it better,..feel exactly the same way ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
