Temple of the king - Rainbow - Dio (Fingerpicking)

[sirthor00]

I don't recognize the guitar brand, it looks like a Jackson headstock, or early Charvel? anyway great sustain, I know the frustration of trying to get the kind of tone pros have on a shoe string budget and it sucks. I finally learned the secret of some, they don't record with 100 watt stacks, but many a rock album with great tone has been recorded in a studio with a little combo cranked to the max.

[rajjj85]

you nailed it man.............

[bigchickenfu]

Reminds me of "Angie" from the Stones

[alextula]

Hey brother¡¡¡ how are u, Long time no talk. As I told you once I love your style. with this song I have many good memories, i played this song with a band a long time ago. I love your guitar solo.

Greetings from spain, man

[tafxkz]

good touch, great phrasing and control - i am sure you can push more tone out of the 505- keep working on it if you want to push the limits of the zoom 505- do also do keep tweaking your amp and guitar knobs, i feel your sound could be a lot lot better

you are good with your finger picking - you improvisations seem to say that you have original compositions in there waiting to be heard

[taino1975]

Good job! I like your sound and i think me singing it would sound even better!

[riegrieg]

nice tone you got there dude!

[1nine79]

[alextula]

Rainbow

(R)

[luvmuzk]

Great song and your playing made the hair stand up on my neck. Your playing is probably better than the recording gives you credit

[iloveplanetrock]

Lovly guitar, well played. Sounds a bit tinny but apart from that it is really good. 9/10

[thorm002]

nice work :)

[marcotheboy99]

Amazing rendition of one of the greatest songs ever!

[PurpleCloudsOfWater]

I.GOT.GOOSEBUMPS. what an awesome tone you got! what an awesome solo!!!!!!!!

[SixStringJoe]

thanks for that encouraging comment mate :)

[Unanonimollamadotin]

Great!! Could you tell me who is the Arpeggio? Thanks and Congratulations it sounds really nice

[Paganguy1]

Don't thank me, GO, make a billion dollars, you artist bastard doing what I could never do!!!! (LOL)

Really, just great...

[Paganguy1]

Jesus! The phrasing, the power, the control... holy mary.... you should have a billion dollars by now, you are an artist. "Bright and Powerful..." the last poster said, yes, I agree. You are amazing, my friend. Thank you for this..... Wonderful... Incredible... Jesus playing guitar, is what it is...

[SixStringJoe]

Randy, all I can say is WoW!!! that's the best compliment I've got. Thanks :)

[Rayvann4ever]

Great! The guitar sounds bright and powerful

[giometaxas]

why do always ppl care only about dio?:( let me remind u that ritchie wrote all songs

[sabbathmaiden]

No, he didn't. Ritchie co-wrote the music with Dio. Dio is credited with not only the lyrics to this song, but he is also credited with co-writing the music with Blackmore.

[ladynox2000]

Man, you're great! I thought indian people hated rock music. Well, i was wrong then.

If your guitar could talk, he would definately tell you how proud he was to be played by your talented fingers.

KEEP ROCKING! YEEAAHH!!!

Oh well, I wish i knew how to play guitar.... :`( huu huu

[Uthred50]

Good job! :)

[daniboi93]

Hey :) How do you do the scream at around 2:50?

[SixStringJoe]

I kind of pinch it with my nail and a part of the thumb. I guess it'll be easier trying it with a pick although I haven't used one.

[contlajj]

and your face ?

[SixStringJoe]

not a pretty face :) so i thought it'd better to let others see how i play. but yeah, my face is there on my profile page :)

[dimpikos]

very good job my friend.........gon from greece

[biker72rus]

Very good version, but i think there is too much distortion for this song....

[cadaverblackmore]

i agree

[rainbowastur]

nice work joe.one of best song from blackmore and dio.gretings from northern spain.keep on rocking...

[Hoppahupo]

Watch out where the camels go, and don't step into wet yellow sand!

Good job, have fun!

[alextula]

Great, you are great Joe. Greetings from spain. we are so far in space, but i feel like your brother in music.

[SixStringJoe]

Greetings from Oman :) Thanks for your comment. I think you play pretty good too

[pasxalis1987]

nice job lad!!!

[soldierfrontowned]

very ns played and ns sound

[Kaukau69allthetime]

Xcellent, beautiful!! Would you sell me your note-for-note tablature on this song??

Do you play "Man on the silver Mountain" and "Heaven and Hell", as well??

[SixStringJoe]

thanks :) i have not tabbed a song yet. played this one by listening to it. Dio rocks! I have done heaven & hell too, it's on my channel (not up to the mark though)

[muscle4xxx]

good but you kind of made up the solo and improvised it rather than playing. did lots of bending rather than sliding. some notes were missing, some notes were new. good stuff. still no one can challenge my solo yet. :) just messing with ya kids.

[AAmartinez1979]

excellent job man i love this song i think it is one of the best from rainbow

[ScottXC91]

Well since Dio was the lead singer of Rainbow,

it's really not his version of the song.

It's Rainbow's

[mooga46]

[deathism]

nice Roland JC..its Jazz Chorus right??

yea..niwae..go easy on the chorus.its making ur tone a lil ice picky..

[kimjongil1975]

sweet.

5stars!

[yotubacka]

Very nice style! Fantastic job of an awesome classic rock ballad. This beautiful Rainbow masterpiece never got the radio play and credit that it deserved. Now if the band I'm in could only get our guitar player to do songs like this. :)

[SriMersing81]

Babe...

you got really nice voice...

but it's not clear.

You have no microphone with you?

[anas5055]

maybe u can get more improve on the sound of ur guitar..

[muscle4xxx]

[mccsth9295]

Great Job!! How about some Dance of Death solo?

[asadjansari]

Hi! I am waiting for some more renditions of Scorpions... Stated somewhere in comments. Would love to watch u play "send me an angel"

[SixStringJoe]

hey bro', I just did another scorpions for you (when the smoke is going down), It's been almost 4 months since I played the guitar :)

[bluesmannonthebass]

Good job!

[maulikprabhudesai]

It was sung by Dio

[SixStringJoe]

how dumb of me!!! I should've guess. come to think of it, you're right, I feel like kicking myself in the head :-D

[maulikprabhudesai]

It was in the first album Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow... original version has an accoustic..

[HolyDiver666777]

dio was the lead singer of rainbow along time ago. oh hey six string, if you can post man on the silver mountain
