[Shadowrider880]

Rolling STONES FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[geomanios]

AMAZING VERSION DUDE!!!!

WHERE ARE THE TABS>??????

F...ING NEED THEM!!!!!

[ubacam]

this is why guns and roses piss me off they take all of the great classic rock songs like this one, live and let die, and all along the watch tower and turn them into hard rock/metal crap and so all of the idiot fans listen to it and think "oh guns and roses are so awesome and original" when all they do is convert gold to nickel. A rare priceless piece of work turned into worthlessness. Haha but hey man you are a great guitar player just learn some new songs

[matrich1983]

@ubacam well said dude!!!

[JrvUnleashedMusic]

@ubacam Cry moar. This version is much better than the rolling stones version. You clearly don't understand the essence of what rock is. The GNR version "Rocks" quite a bit more.

[ctorres20101]

@JrvUnleashedMusic i also think that @ubacam is a bitch but nothing compares to the original song , and GNR is my favorite band

[JrvUnleashedMusic]

@ctorres20101 Lol, it's clear that this is the superior version.

[ctorres20101]

@ubacam welll , fuck you thenn , this version rockss , im not saying rolling stones version is bad , but GNR version is almost as cool as the originall , fuckkkk youuuu , and fuck you to @matrich1983 , i bet you are ubacam's bitch

[345weehrs]

you suck balls



[ctorres20101]

@345weehrs no , you suck fuckingg balls , he plays great , i bet you are jealous....... bitch

[kleedje009]

is dis a gibson of a epiphone les paul?

[krazyandrock]

Epi sparkle crap. i dnt like it

[ctorres20101]

@krazyandrock its a great fuckinggg videooooo , how couldnt you like it! you have a horrible taste for music

[donomarro]

where is the tab?

[bloozeman1969]

how can I steal licks from you if I cant see your fingers????

[Xen8]

No offence man but you have ugly motherfuckin finish on that guitar

[ctorres20101]

@Xen8 no offence , but you dont know how to apricciate music

[Xen8]

@ctorres20101 What does me not liking the guitar finish have to do with appreciating music?

[LeTiiLyOnnaiis]

BOUFFON

[sebaXcore06]

i love guns but I prefer  stones version

[stefbuttys]

axl made slash record the solo agfain because it was the one which kieth played

[nopuedeser]

well played!!

[d0nnan4]

i love both versions, guns are my fave band ever but i prefer stones version, original cant be beat

Slash was on this but axl put paul "huge" tobias over it, slash talks about this in his book, axl thought slashs solos should have been more "keef". not what covers are about! you make them your own style

[COPTONER]

thats what i read in the book.not sure what book numnuts over their read (lol)

[ajaxrulzz]

les paul chameleon?

[x1cmb11]

i think boath songs are great and by gnr haveing there own version we have 2 awesome songs to listen to i dont care whos is better

[cr7isbest]

the rolling stones version is much better than the guns and roses version! rolling stones rules!!!

[killinit0103]

guns and roses re work this song i like both the stones and guns and roses they just have different feels to the song not that is better or worse in my opinion

[Slash417]

this is very very good. where will the tabs be?

[willisis2]

Mick Taylor would whoop Slash's ass in a sympathy for the devil guitar-off. Slash's solo is good, but the whole song just ruins it

[martin290193]

so true taylor would kill slash. but slash didnt play the gnr solo on sympathy for the devil paul tobias did (:

[Buzzerfk]

Slash did play the solo, but Tobias played the overdubbed second guitar in the solo. This made Slash so pissed that he finally left the band..

I don't care who would kill who, I like both versions..

[MelonMuzik]

That's a load of bollocks. Have you even read his autobiography.?

[benjaste]

slash played all the amazing solos that helped make the band though

[martin290193]

of course, i never said i didnt like slash :) actually i think november rain is the best studio guitar solo ever recorded :)

[cahum95]

stones version is better

[JerryC366]

Not really. G'nr have a different feel to the song. I really like there version better. The stones just play it. Guns 'n Roses work it.

[slashman65748]

yeah man

[Horationelson4ever]

This isn't a gnr song it's the 'stones they ruin this song in my opinion, the stones version rocks

[thetramp1936]

yeah, the stones will always do it better...

[mick26051992]

agreed gunenrs hsouldnt have touched it. not that i dont fuckign love the gunenrs tho

[godlyguitarist43]

nice but you need to turn your amp up a little, you cant tell if its the record or your guitar, good for what your playing , but you want to focus on the guitar

great job though

[piefreak7]

its awsome! can you get the tab?

[lzvrsam]

you can get the tab for this on slashs snakepit website

[libriano3]

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooool!!!

[jjontte]

It is Slash solo, only Paul Hugh coverd it....

[advance2]

very good

[Egamer50]

Please tab this out, if you have guitar pro could you do it in guitar pro? just please PLEASE tab it i really want to play this solo.

[w1104717]

isn't this that homo paul tobias solo, not slash's? Cause in slash's book he said axl placed tobias solo over slash's.

[moppet12345]

Who cares

[w1104717]

real guns fans care retard.

[moppet12345]

Yeah I know what it says in the book, I've read it to but I meant who cares he made a mistake just listen ect.

Not who cares about what you said dude.

Soz

[bitchslapper12]

Stop travel on the frets just let the guitar don't have it's orgasm this evening PLEASE!

[4442Vip]

I need the tabs for this pllllzzzzz

[LedHead303]

add zeppelin to that list haha

[Jaybird040]

I thought slash had nothing to do with this recording and its the fact that Axl went ahead with it that cause all the trouble.

While I'm at it let me say that GnR is one of the best rock bands of all time...as is the Stones of course.

[LesPaulFever]

And Eric? It lookes too fast because the audio is off.

[LedHead303]

Great but to fast to learn from watching, i need tabs cause i am doin this song for a talent show so yea i found some online but nothing thats shows the solo in depth.

[LesPaulFever]

I'm with this loser. I need the tabs too.

[LedHead303]

Great but to fast to learn from watching, i need tabs cause i am doin this song for a talent show so yea i found some online but nothing thats shows the solo in depth.

[pegueros666]

And the tab men?? Please put it!!

[4442Vip]

will someone plz send me the tabs for this song????? much appreciated

[erlokocani]

de puta madre

[srgtpepper65]

pretty good playing. Mick taylors solo on the original stones song was much better. no offense to any G&R fans out thur

[dluther3]

keith richards..

[giddygiraffe]

Recorded version was Richard's solo (he also played the bass as well!) Talor only played solo to this live. Brian Jones was still in the stones when it was recorded but he got reduced to playin maraccas on Rock n Roll circus because he is blatently off his tits. Keiths solo on Rock n Roll circus is class as well

[dluther3]

who cares who plaayed it. im pretty sure slash did but i could care a less bc in his book he hated this song and only felt of it as a insult to himself

[watiwant]

Can you please post the tabs

[coryryancastle4554]

slash got pissed when he heard someone dubbed over his guitar solo

[susoblues]

Hey! Great job! But did you finally manage to type out the tab? I would like to learn some of these licks and in the video your fingers move really fast :D

Thank you!

[teenrocker499]

nice man very well done best i seen yet

[blakgutar]

it's amazing wow. I love slashhhhhhhh he is best :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[Slash417]

woooow. you played it perfectly. It was Slash mostly, and the echos are Tobais.

[sydoryk]

tobias just played slashes part in the video...this is a horrible song...not slashs style

[everythirteendays]

Did you read what Slash had to say about this song in his book?

[lalelilolu5230]

what does it say? o_O

[jakeblahdedblahblah]

it wasnt Paul Tobias u dick it was slash...

[FireJontte]

It was both, Slash plays the "echo"

[drumzac]

This solo wasn't even Slash. It was Paul Tobias.

[rammyrake]

the cd is way too loud

[dinamobbb1986]

hey nice work..can you please send me the tabs for first solo.or website with that solo..i cant find it

[SynGatesJr]

Nice job! But how about those tabs? You've been procrastinating for about a year now.... =P

[4442Vip]

yeah how bout those tabs.....I wish that I could play that well. I think the coolest thing that I can play is Van Halens Eruption

[Jdawg0492]

cool gibson and nice solo

[GORODDICK]

what scale does this solo use??

[sympathydevil]

E minor blues interspersed with some work on the E major scale.

Guitars are tuned half a step down E->Eb A->G# etc...

[viewer12354]

so how bout those tabs? i've figured it out for myself, just interested on how urs varies...

[nowhereman76]

What's the use of such clips?! I learned nothing. Nice you can play this. But if you want to showcase your ego you better film your face next time too. Check my clip .../watch?v=t57C4K5bKk8 of the Stone's "Sympathy For The Devil" (Apple acetate 07:40min) The missing Verse/Chorus #4 NOT on "Ya-Ya's" ARE present on Apple's acetate! These words have been missing for over 28 YEARS! MICK TAYLOR would blow SLASH off the stage while standing modestly in the shade! But still like GNR.

[waldo8999]

rolling stones did a way better version of this song...oh wait...it was the original

[sexytim91]

yea that other guy is paul huge. axl brought him into the band without even telling slash and thats wot caused the first major bust up between them

[juggler778]

Slash wrote the the main solo, but theres another guitar playing in the backround if you listen to the song, and that was by another guitarist and was added in when slash wasnt there. but this solo is slash's

[jonmcroy]

thats not slash.

axl had slash's solo taken out of the song and replaced because he didnt like it

[ouygo]

Who is it? Slash

[average90]

to be honest, i dont think that paul huge guy did record the solo's, cos the lead guitar sounds like a typical slash solo, the vibrato sounds like his, the extremely fast runs sound like his and it just has that bluesy edge which everyone associates wif slash !

[sportsman87]

is this Led Zeppelin?

[cateray]

Um, no sweetie. It's The Stones. Sheesh!

[sportsman87]

Ahhh lol yea i didnt listen to the whole vid lol sry but yea my bad lol

[doh0702]

Um, no sweetie. It's G'NR. Sheesh! But you're right Stones wrote it =)

[cateray]

Yep. That's already pretty obvious from the title 'Slash Guitar Solo Sympathy for the Devil Tabbed'. I was talking about the fact that the Stones wrote the original. :)

[Jenscool]

Turn the music down and lets hear if you CAN play, dude?

[guitar69legend]

uh u guys do no this is an original rolling stones song right? gnr wasnt going to put this on their album, cuz it was their warm up or something, but they decided to for filler.

[axltyler]

I've always wanted to know the story behind their decision to do Sympathy for the Devil because that's one of my favorite songs of all time.

[GunsNRoses0991]

Yeah, I love this song but I hate it cause if u listen there are two main guitar tracks, Slash's lead was apparently replace or used as the background one, this essentially sparked the end of Guns N' Roses amongst other issues...

[paulympia]

me too i like this one, paul (huge) tobias was doing the other lead solo. axl and paul tobias was the culprit why the greatest band of whole world broke up!!! tobias knew that slash and duff don't want him in the band and yet he keep on doing his stuff to be a rhythm guitarist. i want to call the new gn'r as guns n' roses II (the 2nd)

[axltyler]

they had the potential to make this rendition something really special.

[axltyler]

listening to this again, this isn't slash. Slash has his own signature. Has anyone heard Slash's actual guitar work on this song?

[ToasterMan7]

yea axl got some other guy to overdub Slashs playing, another reason Slash left

[guitar69legend]

ya man ur right, this is when axl started covering everyone and not making anymore music. when the break up of the band occurred. this is definately not slash ur right

[axltyler]

I heard that before the band broke up in 1995, they were going to create another album together. I'll always wondeer, because we'll never know, if they were going to place Sympathy for the Devil in their next album. It would've been hard to top UYI.

[vinirocker]

wow!

very good!

awesome dude!

keep rocking

[Slash417]

VERY GOOD!

[jammasterquo]

dont care who plays it haha, its a class GNR track

[iggyodwyer]

slash did the solo first and paul tobias re-recoreded over. this was one of the main facotrs in slash quitting the band

[03acanny]

as if that was one of the main factors of him quitting. he quit after big arguments with axl over hmm let me guess... money! axl hit slash over the head with a guitar and slash left and duff and matt followed!

[iggyodwyer]

lol whered u hear that. i heard my one in an inerview.

[fugitive1201]

why the fuck would axl want slash's solo re-recorded. is he a fucking dumbass? I could see if they put out a live album and slash was fucked up when he played it, but having it dubbed over, especially to Slash? Come on.

[iggyodwyer]

its the truth, google it. i know it sounds stupid eh.

[czarnybaran5150]

Yep, it's Slash 100% for sure. And yes you can hear Paul Tobias on the 1st lead shadowing Slash and then intermittingly on the outro solo. And for those of you with a good ear can hear the difference in tone between Slash and Tobias. It's like night and day.

[fersuels89]

that solo wasnt from slash-.. slash had left tyhe band when interview with a vampire comes to theaters..

but it hink it still a great cover

[Moisexguitarist]

Slash left in '96 and this song is from 1994, and of course Paul Tobias couldn' t do this solo because only Slash can do something like this. Slash is the best.

[Towley12]

Lol, no it wasn't Slash demeat1, it was all Tobias' work. Slash was infuriated because Axl used Tobias' solos over his... you do your homework.

[demeat1]

That was Slash. Tobias plays rythym and shadows his first solo.. You can hear tobias in background. Shadow Angel, do you homework.

[bigmachine]

shit shit shit....need to practice !!!!

[CaptainJDSpaz666]

Shadowangle. you fucking guitar noob its slash. the other solos under the main guitar is paul huge's. slash made comments about recording that song, he has stated in interview that he played it. fucking dumb ass!

[ithinkirock]

Dude Slashn did not record this fucking solo it's a studio musician. Not hating just telling you nice work though! Fuck all the haters on youtube!!!

[Crudlo]

wat sort of guitar and amp are you using? real les paul?

[sympathydevil]

It's a limited edition Epiphone Les Paul Standard, played through a big Fender amp (can't remember the model) with no effects. Put Gain and treble all the way up, mid to about 6, and bass to around 4.

[Slash34]

its ok but i think ur goin a lil dramatic on the slide down after every phrase, gd work tho

[sympathydevil]

I didn't use tab, i figured out by ear.

I'm going to post the tab when i finish writing it out on some internet guitar tab sites. I'm about halfway through writing it out so i imagine it'll be up in a couple weeks.

[PirotePete25]

Where do you find the Tabs for that dude?

[sympathydevil]

Ok, i'll maybe post one where the record is quieter.

[axltyler]

I wish you had played that without the record in the background. But I can understand why you used it.

[ShadowAngle]

You bastard, you just tabbed out the beginning of the end for the Real Guns n' Roses. The reason Slash left the band is because Axl used Paul Huge's (or Tobias or whatever) solos on the Sympathy for the Devil recordings. Thats not Slash at all man. Good tab work, but fuck man do your research, that's a low blow.

[xxwantedxx]

can i please have that tab????

[Justaguyinnc]

would like to see the tab..
