No offense (really), but you're just slightly out of tune (a little flat). But nice job otherwise.

This is one of my fave guitar solos of all time. It's not virtuosic in terms of complexity, but the choice of notes is just killer.

For anyone who cares, the original solo on the record was played by Jimmy Lyon, the guitarist on Eddie Money's first two solo records. He really caught lightning in a bottle with this solo.

Thanks for posting.

Yup, a little flat. I just put these videos up on myspace so I can refresh my memory if I need to. Not trying to be flawless.

that last bend should be done higher up on the fretboard and it won't be so hard to catch that last note. Most of the time the licks aren't as hard as they sound.

Usually the easiest way to do it is the correct way, as long as it sounds like the original recording that is.

That was pretty cool.
