steelcaressed Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 QUOTE (EmotionDetector @ Feb 2 2009, 09:58 AM) I thought this was a no-brainer! UNDER THE SHADOW Some of the most intense playing ever from all 3 of the boys! Absolutely phenomenal crescendo! RotP does have a great solo, but as Fridge pointed out w/ his Baba O reference, it's a three chord ditty that lacks originality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas King Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Return of the Prince - the incredible guitar by Lifeson! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty Mindless Spectre Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I threw another vote in for Into the Darkness, since it wasn't getting any love. That solo is so wickedly awesome. It perfectly portrays the sinister feel of that section, just like the solos in the other two sections capture the feel of the storyline in those sections. I could just as easily have voted for any of the three sections though as the entire song is a shining example of the sheer brilliance of Alex Lifeson, specifically his unique ability to portray feelings and emotions through his guitar.

RUSHHEAD666 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I chose none of the above. I love ALL OF IT! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Into The Darkness - Love the eerie intro. Geddy's voice is at its emotive best and the soaring solo is lean and gets straight to the point, like many of Alex' classic solos of the future would do... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Under the Shadow, then Into the Darkness. All in all, some of Alex's heaviest work. :haz: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
