#3, #6, and #8 aren't solos, they're instrumentals (never mind that they're terrific; and if you're going to include instruments, then how can you skip Voodoo Chile ). But there's no need to include instrumentals when the list has left out Tightrope and Can I Have a Talk With You (the studio version: I can't speak to others)

@talastra An instrumental can't have solos? Someone tell Joe Satriani, quick.

@zorland876 Also, I wasn't being snotty about your list (it'd be interesting to know your criteria for picking the solos), and while an instrumental can have solos, of course, how exactly do you distinguish them? Where are the solos in Voodoo Chile, for instance, etc? Really, it boils down to "what is meant by a guitar solo". Improvised or composed variations over the course of a whole song are generally different than a short, extra-virtuosic or soulful showpiece in the middle of a song. Yes?

[zorland876]

@talastra I have the same dilemma, and know exactly what you're talking about. Since guys like Satch and Buckethead record mostly instrumental music based aroudn their guitar playing, they basically create entire track-long solos, so its hard to distinguish where any solo begins or ends.

two things:

1- I think LENNY is a solo in a whole...if i wrote it right..

2- still with LENNY, your post of this song sounds diferent from the ones i´ve heard.. where can i find it???

thanks

[zorland876]

@pedrinme Yeah, but I have to fit it into a 10 minute video.

Mine is off of the SRV 3-disc set. I don't know that its any different from the original, I'd have to look it up.

#8 isn't even Stevie or Rude Mood. It's Jimmy Vaughan and Stevie playing Pipeline

@sisnerosism771

Didn't he go by the name Robert back in the 60's? He was the Man From U.N.C.L.E. right? Yeah, I liked him back then.

[sisnerosism771]

@LiquorWreckedEmGood Stevie Ray Vaughan was a premier first rate guitarist and could play Rhythm and Blues better than most. Some respect for Mr. Vaughan, if you don't mind. Maybe he's not with us anymore since about 1993; but I'm a fan and it's kind of sad to see you write; what you wrote. View one of his concert DVD"s sometime and I can assure you'll be a fan to!

If you're looking for a suggestion. October 10 Austin City Limits version of Leave My Little Girl Alone. Wow!!! That is just smoking!

[RudeMood1990]

@naruhina102 its a medley of rude mood and pipeline. but i really think that he better cloud take the original rude mood from texas flood

[LiquorWreckedEmGood]

Who is this Stevie Ray Vaughan? Never heard of him. He's just another Justin Bieber wanna-be.

[naruhina102]

@zorland876 8 wasnt rude nood its piple line



[texacaster]

@zorland876 #3 is Jimmie Vaughan

@zorland876

Satch is a bad example. He is one of the guitarists where the instrumental is often times soloing over chords for an entire song. Buckethead and Paul Gilbert are better examples. They make instrumentals based on sick riffs and then go into guitar solos normally.

# 8 is not rude mood, is pipeline ... The Vaughan Brothers

[Armendariz18]
