Still love this song Pete . When I'm out driving and this track comes up on the cd player in my truck , I crank it up to " 11 " < little Spinal Tap reference for ya ' .
You really captured some great emotion in your guitar work on this one no doubt .
I have a question Pete...Since I am not a guitar player and just a huge HS fan, how difficult is this to play for a skilled player? Would this be considered super advanced?
Mandy could be combined with Steve Vai's Blue Powder to make an Amazing Song. Mandy is too short. Maybe Mandy could be the vocal Melody part of Blue Powder. Yes Mandy is one of my favorite solo's.
this was my fav solo when i was 11 years old, use to fall asleep to it everynight...brings back me back... i think i will attempt to finally learn it... thanks pete
This song has travelled all around the world with me and has marked several moments in my life. A very tremendous BIG thank you Pete Lesperance for your genious and great talent. Im also a guitar player and im a huge fan of your playing. God speed.
simply put thank you pete.this little ballad of yours helped me back to playin when my left hand became unusable due to carpaltunnel..thank you i dont believe in havin idols but this songs deserves a higher plain.
Finally, do you think you can show us how to play Boulevard solo? I'd like to get the part you play at 2:38 to 02:41. Don't need to say this but, you are the master of the masters. The best thing I've ever heard. Thanks, Shidoshi Pete-O
Well, Pete, I have a few questions. I'd like to know if you play legato in the Saviors intro... C-Db-D/F-Gb-G, is it the same for the Had Enough intro? I see this kind of muting legato all along the Mood Swings record...
i wish i could get the tabs for this song the way you actually play it pete. the tab i have is not the same, and it is tough to learn the fast parts by ear and by watching alone.
I can't believe people come on here and say things like "I noticed one little mistake " . The guy wrote the goddamn thing ! He knows how it should be played !!Anyway ,Pete is probably the best Canadian guitarist to ever walk this earth !Too bad Harem Scarem put out their best stuff when grunge ruled the world ...
man! having only discovered this man and the band harem scarem after being a shred guitarist for 20 years i have been missing out now i have to go by ten cds
2 lost souls have failed to understand that this is the creator himself Pete Lesperance playing !!

Wow ! Brings back memories when I was a school kid and used to argue with my buds about HS being more melodic than Iron Maiden ! :D
Thanks for this. You should definitely look for a solo instrumental career and would be doubly good if you and Andy Timmons toured together. :-)

he is fantastic and the sound of the guitar (the attack + distortion) is superb.
i did notice 1 small mistake while he was playing, maybe the strings were too tough to pull up or down. lol
still one of the best guitarists ever.
