Being a girl not knowing much about playing a guitar, when i first heard this i was offended, like: WHAT??? This isn't a solo, why would he bring another guitar player with him??? and where the hell is he??? Now i know what a delay is, and who is the master of it. really wonderful!
AAAhhhh q buen solo!!!!! de las q te dan ganas de aprender a tocar como UN DIOS DEL ROCK!!!!!.....Brian May...........No todos tienen el "Don" de una buena interpretacion
MAY was ahead of his time,not because of playing,but for the electronics he had is his GUITAR?I don't know where the delay pedal is,or the chorus,is he adjusting them using the controls on the Guitar? The 'G'-'C'-'F' effects "RAINING" sequence can be done by anyone with a digitech processor these days.But back then? with analogue pedals?very difficult.Guy was ahead of the pack,electronically.#38 on the All-time gr8tist guitarist list? generous.and please no hate mail,it is just an opinion!
I think Brian May is one of the greatest yet most overlooked guitarists in rock history. He has great fluidity. And he is a man of thought and consideration. After reading a little more about him, he moved way up on my list of favorite guitarists.
Sometimes when you listen to Queen this awesome dude lets out a certain sound. A buzz... or... more like a ZING! And when you hear that... ZING... all you could say is...
I know damn well their aint 38 guitarists in history better than Brian May, Wth Rolling Stone SUCKS ZEBRA DICK... Brain May is in my top 10.. NUFF SAID
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is terrible...i'm not even talking about technicity, this is ugly and worst thing is that he could play with a kazoo, everybody would be like "OMG he really plays with his soul, that's beatiful". Stop saying they are great just because Mercury died, ok we get it, it's sad, he was a good singer but Queen is overrated, no matter how you look at it.
And if i want to listen to opera i listen to opera, not Bohemian bullcrap.
@alexi7301 Yet, 40 years later he is still respected by the industry and the fans, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion , but wouldn't your opinion be better heard complimenting what you like rather than blasting what you don't. Just saying...
@alexi7301 clearly this has been posted just to get attention in ur sad little life but im going to add to it coz i feel like telling u ur a mug nothing overrated about queen at all

Brian can rip when he wants to .,..this is about dynamics, taste and a little something called performance ... taking the crowd with you, not just wanking AT the crowd.
the only people who hate this is probably dragonforce or alex laiho lovers. for them, playing guitar is like a reca. all about speed. the dont knoew that guitar playin should come from the soul not your brain.
one reason for Brian's distinct sound is he and his father hand made his guitar out of a 500 year old fireplace mantle...the older the wood the sweeter the tone....
brian may play its like "who needs marshall cabinet when i can stack up about 40-50 vox ac30 for this place"...he got brain as big as hes hair...genius is nothing....what kind of PHD...play a guitar this amazing...well..Brian May
@deoxyribonucleic777 jeff loomis is amazing, but its not about playing super technical stuff. so stop being a troll. Brian May has brilliant phrasing and his licks are beautiful.
@bighaffa12 I don't mean to troll I'm just tired of older generations downing modern guitarists and saying things like it's just speed and random notes I hear them down neo-classical all day long where I live. But perhaps it works both ways, perhaps I should try to find appreciation in this and they should try to find appreciation in neo-classical. I will give it a shot.
@deoxyribonucleic777 well, not to add into the whole trolling thing, but modern day guitarist seem to not have that soul that 60-80's guitarist have....todays guitarist usually rely on effects and super complicated technical riffs to make a good song while back in the day it was soulfull riffs and good beats....
example....
listen to Killer Queen by Queen and then go and listen to Downfall by Children of Bodom
yes its diffrent genres, but pay attention to the guitar
@TrippyTheShroom How can you compare a "rock" group to a "deathcore" group? Deathcore was always about anger, hence showing your "anger" (EMOTION) as an angry sounding, high octane piece, different pieces yes, but being able to compare different genres and different emotions is a difficult thing to do.
@UKLegendUK ok, then if you wanna stay in the "rock/metal" genre guitarist, then compare Brian May (Queen) and Tom Morello (Audioslave, RATM)
both are considered "Rock" guitarist and both are considered very good guitarist...but one OBVIOUSLY excels over the other due to a thing called "Soul" in guitar
@TrippyTheShroom Yeah, I know exactly what you're saying, I just think you were kinda off on how you said it, but I think everyone likes soulful guitar playing.
@UKLegendUK lol sorry if i came off a bit crude in that last message, but ya, most people obviously prefer to hear soulful guitar playing like Brian may, randy rhoads, classical guitarist basically....thats what you very rarely hear anyone nowadays that sounds like Brian May, or Randy Rhoads, or Eric Clapton etc
@TrippyTheShroom It's all good man, i know I may have also haha, but I know what you mean dude, but if you like soulful guitar playing, check out Corazon De Santiago by Marty Freidman, ex-Megadeth lead guitarist but my God he can play blues xD
I think Tom Morello plays from the soul too, I mean, not on an emotional kind of level, but he plays passionately for helping others. All of RATM's songs are about the oppression and suffering going on due to corruption, they talk about homeless and hungry people, and they do something about it.
@deoxyribonucleic777 lol I'm a Loomis fan, but never diss a rock god bitch. Loomis is a new generation player, no doubt, but why even bring him up here. There's about 10,000 guys faster than Brian May ever was, but nobody cares about those guys. Any fool can play fast.
Jeff Loomis would probably slap you himself for the disrespect.
What ever he tries to do with his guitar ... he's not only playing ... it's like he was trying to share his passion of guitar with us ... a true legend !
I can't think of another guitarist with such an individual sound & tone. I can instantly tell when it's Brian. An absolute genius. How it does it, God only knows.
@The12Child Overrated??? How can anybody say that... All people talk is hendrix, page, slash santana... I say Brian May and they "Who?"... He is incredibly underrated... Created a new sound and during some ofhis solos (like this one) he does the sound of 3 guitars... 3!!!! Nobody did what that but he stood up and made it look easy... You are right.... Those guys are assholes... Top 5 in the best guitarrists of all times no doubt... Brighton Rock and Bijou are the proof of what I say...
I am definetly a Brian May fan, but every solo video that I have seen he has played the same ol' thing. He is a great guitarist, but I kind of got tired of hearing the same old thing.
true talent...a genius.....I don't know much about guitars, but I am guessing he is using alot of reverb, piggyback and echo to get the effects he creates....
this is the best version i think most brian may fans prefer this version. . .cause i keep certain things and only some things work great live some dont they might sound great in rehersal but live they just fade and die almost instantly . . . .any way i dont like to change it too much . . . i hope ypu all enjoy this. . . .thank you all
@MINISLASH0 I think you asked a very silly question and feel like a very silly person. And you cant shut your face, and Im not a woman. So basically everything coming out of your mouth is WRONG.
@MINISLASH0 We use a joint account, and I'm not gay as I am in a very long term relationship. Remember my earlier point about everything that comes out of your mouth is wrong??? You just proved me right....
@MINISLASH0 Again, stuff coming out of your mouth is wrong. Also, Faggots are a Meaty dish from Scotland. Since food can't really have a relationship, this makes you wrong AGAIN. I seriously suggest you just stop talking now, simply because you are an un-educated iidot, as you have shown with your ridiculous 2 line comments.
@Rebekah270984 I'll have you know that Faggots are not just a meaty dish, however, they are meatballs of sorts. Therefore, they were something living and organic, which then leads one to believe that at one point, they could maintain a stable relationship. Also, Faggots are popular and traditionally served in the Midlands of England, not Scotland. I am guessing you're an iidot who went to Scotland and thought "DURRR HURRR FANCY EATING"
@MINISLASH0 Now stop arguing with me because you are REALLY boring and so blatently just going on google for any information to try to make me look stupid.
@Rebekah270984 By the way, I don't think you're very well educated in terms of guitars and effects and such. After experimentation, I found that Brian May is actually using a delay pedal with a lot of depth and repeat. So the next time you try and be a smart ass, maybe you should check on some things before you go being an "iidot"
@Rebekah270984 Okay, then don't be a smart ass and think you know everything because it sure as hell seemed like it. And thats awesome that you know how to play one! You're so cool! By the way, you spelled "blatantly" wrong, iidot. Arguments aren't meant to entertain, by the way.
@MINISLASH0 Don't talk down to me, I never once said that I know everything or even that I know better than you. And has your whole argument just come down to the fact that I spent one word wrong??? Seriously??? Also I have not once insulted you, there is no need for it as that is what un-educated people do when they cannot put a decent argument together. Now just don't reply, it's very easy to do.
That ping pong delay with two amps is pretty bad ass. I wouldn't call this inimitable though haha. Lots of guitarists do stuff with delay like this. Watch big sur moon.
may is a great guitarist and u just have to love the red special, such a unique sound which is also why he is such a good guitarist. i love the bit where he gets louder at each strum.
@jeserty6 A lot of the time a wall of amps are made mostly of dummy amps, just for effect. Usually only a few have speakers in them and are hooked up.
Excelente. Uno de los mejores guitarristas que he visto en mi vida.

Hello there fellow Rockers.
1. Instead of bashin other Rock artists, we need to unite. We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together.
2. Watch more and other rock videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list.
3. Instead of bashing pop, promote Rock with logical reasons, not just "ROCK RULES!".

He's so gentle with his guitar, yet so powerful and extremely talented.

at around 1:40, what effect is Brian using to do that with the volume?
MINISLASH0 1 year ago
@MINISLASH0 I think it's called, turning the volume up....

@Rebekah270984 I think it's called, shut your face, woman
MINISLASH0 1 year ago
@MINISLASH0 I think you asked a very silly question and feel like a very silly person. And you cant shut your face, and Im not a woman. So basically everything coming out of your mouth is WRONG.

@Rebekah270984 i think you're gay because your name is Rebekah
MINISLASH0 1 year ago
@MINISLASH0 We use a joint account, and I'm not gay as I am in a very long term relationship. Remember my earlier point about everything that comes out of your mouth is wrong??? You just proved me right....
Rebekah270984 1 year ago
@Rebekah270984 long term relationships are for faggots along with joint accounts. i'm right because i think so.
MINISLASH0 1 year ago
@MINISLASH0 Again, stuff coming out of your mouth is wrong. Also, Faggots are a Meaty dish from Scotland. Since food can't really have a relationship, this makes you wrong AGAIN. I seriously suggest you just stop talking now, simply because you are an un-educated iidot, as you have shown with your ridiculous 2 line comments.
Rebekah270984 1 year ago
@Rebekah270984 I'll have you know that Faggots are not just a meaty dish, however, they are meatballs of sorts. Therefore, they were something living and organic, which then leads one to believe that at one point, they could maintain a stable relationship. Also, Faggots are popular and traditionally served in the Midlands of England, not Scotland. I am guessing you're an iidot who went to Scotland and thought "DURRR HURRR FANCY EATING"

@MINISLASH0 Now stop arguing with me because you are REALLY boring and so blatently just going on google for any information to try to make me look stupid.
Rebekah270984 1 year ago
@Rebekah270984 By the way, I don't think you're very well educated in terms of guitars and effects and such. After experimentation, I found that Brian May is actually using a delay pedal with a lot of depth and repeat. So the next time you try and be a smart ass, maybe you should check on some things before you go being an "iidot"

@Rebekah270984 Okay, then don't be a smart ass and think you know everything because it sure as hell seemed like it. And thats awesome that you know how to play one! You're so cool! By the way, you spelled "blatantly" wrong, iidot. Arguments aren't meant to entertain, by the way.
MINISLASH0 1 year ago
@MINISLASH0 Don't talk down to me, I never once said that I know everything or even that I know better than you. And has your whole argument just come down to the fact that I spent one word wrong??? Seriously??? Also I have not once insulted you, there is no need for it as that is what un-educated people do when they cannot put a decent argument together. Now just don't reply, it's very easy to do.

Inimitabile, si!
You say not? Could you do it? ;)
Plenty of great work out there to compare, but there is only one Brian May. \m/
Rock on, Doc.

That ping pong delay with two amps is pretty bad ass. I wouldn't call this inimitable though haha. Lots of guitarists do stuff with delay like this. Watch big sur moon.
partlyshady 1 year ago
yep Buckethead's-Big Sur Moon is an amasing song which just represents what you can do with a delay pedal but here is different ;)

Watch Brian's right hand, he selects a riff that is recorded and it feeds back a few seconds later for him to play along with.

you would be wrong there my friend. He uses an old school echoplex. Then using his guitars volume nob, he does volume swells.

A WALL OF VOX AMPS BEHIND HIM??? WTF.... Does he use ALL of them??
jeserty6 1 year ago
@jeserty6 A lot of the time a wall of amps are made mostly of dummy amps, just for effect. Usually only a few have speakers in them and are hooked up.
