  • great sound!!

  • Well done young man!!!! Well done.

  • you got a real nice sound in that strat man!

  • In this solo, you can hear the influence on Edward Van Halen, especially in the rhythmic phrasing.

  • nice job man

  • Nice.

  • DAMN!!!!!!

  • THANK YOU!!!!! nice to see the real thing standing out from the posers man. Freewill still screams after 30 years.

  • Any chance to share solo as a tab or instructional vid? This is the one hole for me, and books are just useless. Your solo looks very much like the master's!

  • I'm still trying to learn this solo...you are inspiring! Good job!

  • wow......just, wow

  • you blew me away at the solo i shit my pants

  • polished or not you played superb mate..I've seen Alex play it worse than you.......and he wrote the thing!

  • amazing you played the solo like fucking awesome

  • Very nice performance ! Just needs that solo to be polished a litte bit more, practice makes perfection, well done !

  • Beautiful job.

  • Thank you :)

  • @rushkicksass Nice playing. I always thought the beginning was some kind of tap harmonics. U can really hear the influence on Edward Van Halen. I always thought the way Alex and Edward played together they were like a pop-version of Rush on some songs.

  • Heck ya better than nothing! :D

  • wow that solo was amazing

  • nice job but this is sped right

  • wow....just wow. I'm completely blown away.

    Alex said in an interview this is the hardest solo he's ever written and he's surprised he makes it through it when he plays live, and you nailed it. 500000 stars!

  • one word WOW! just so you know alex himself claims to find that solo a bitch to play live amazing job man.

  • fucking kick ass dude! im usually scared when i hear ppl attempt alex's solos, but you impressed me lol

  • lol it just takes practice

  • the pre-chorus is a bitch, im learning freewill right now and i hope i can play it that well one day

  • Amazing! Great Song and great job - especially with one of Lifeson's faster solos. Just saw Rush in Toronto (hometown)-Awesome! Lifeson is a fantastic and hugely under-appreaciated player (except by musicians) and you have his style/feel down! Love your videos - keep posting 'cause most of the internet tab is crap and Rush guitar fans can learn tons watching you!

  • Thank you very much. Lifeson is very much so underrated

  • I think that your supposed to use a chorus pedal. If you did use one, then bring it out more. Also turn down the ditortion a little. Other that that great job!

  • Where'd you get the tabs for this?

  • I got a Rush tab book a couple years back that i believe was from the guitar center. As for using the tabs I do not use very often I usually watch lifeson himself on many bootleg videos here on youtube, or just play by ear. I have no patients for tabs. Thank you so much for all the nice comments :)

  • Very nice, where did you get the tabs?

  • THAT WAS PRETTY TIGHT DUDE

  • Once againe exlent job love the cover and the strat! 5 Stars. by the way what year is that strat. Thannks. Long live Rush!

  • Oh and my Strat is a 2002

  • That was really good.

  • No comments!!! Shame blike cos that was played like the Lifeson himself..top player!

  • Thank you :)
