Amazing. You absolutely nailed it. This just exemplifies truley what a phenomenal virtuoso guitarist Vito Brata was. I'm glad I grew up listening to and following some of the greatest musicians that ever played rock music
WOW! i just watched the White Lion video of Vito doing the solo, and you got it down! I notice lots of guitar players, i do it myself, playing the last several riffs with a pic! But...it IS tapped! Now i gotta go and relearn that part!! Thanx for a great video and probably the best version on here!
hey man ive asked this ? to another guy at the 20 sec mark i seen u bend at 9th fret
and in the song there is definetly a harmonic dont know but sounds like a tapped one but i almost hear it when you bend that note the tab book i got shows it just like you play it except for the bend one note and im letting it get to me any help?
@scofeildkid Check out my vid of this solo -you're right about the harmonic @ :20. Vito does a 'touch' harmonic there. As he's bending the 9th fret he lightly touches the string @ the 14 fret right after tapping there. It's definitely one of the coolest parts of the solo for me - I worked my butt off to make sure I always get that! :) Good luck!
My fav version so far. Great job! The homemade backing track is great as we can hear everything YOU are doing and not here the actual song as well. Really nice tone too!
This has to be the best attempt on here yet. The homebrew backing makes it way easier to hear what's going on - I'll be learning off this for the next couple of years, or however long it takes. Well played, that man!
Very good. -- If you'd be so kind: I can play this entire solo except for the second-to-last tapped part on your solo (I pick the last phrase instead of tapping it).
Any chance you can do this at 3/4 or 1/2 speed so I can see that part more closely.
Note: I have the official tab for this song and yet that part of the solo confuses me.
Really great man...I just wish someone ANYONE would actually do a second take SLOW - so someone (like me) could actually LEARN how to play it correctly instead of watching in amazement. Please?? Maybe??
From watching all the attemps at this solo on Youtube its clear that even for people with lots of chops this solo is very difficult. Some rush it too much and the phrasing isn't right. You really hit all the points with it. What makes it such a great solo is the great technique is in service of a great melody and phrasing and when the phrasing isn't in place it just falls apart.
good job!!!

That guitar looks soooo huge! Hardly anyone picks the last part. Pretty sure it should be picked and not tapped... still cool.

This is great! What I really like about it is that you don't have the original blasting in the background. It's you and you alone.
Good job!
