Banditos Solo

This is a GREAT solo from The Refreshments' song, "Banditos." Brian Blush is a genius.

I saw a "Guitar Hero" version of this up here on YouTube; I thought I could do one better--I can play along with the real thing! (No offense meant; I'm sure Guitar Hero is a great game.)

This wasn't the cleanest take, but it was the bounciest, so to speak, which makes it (in my mind) the most entertaining! I really need to work on bending up to the right note.

See also my "tutorial" video for this solo.

... Great job man !!!

... I love that song and Brian Blush's playing ... It's too bad that too few people ever found out about him and The Refreshments ... I always say, they were "Serious musicians with a major sense of humor" ... They make me smile everytime !!!

@Tradamart Thanks! They TOTALLY DID have a great sense of humor. :)

Excellent playing! One of my favorite tunes and your learning it is a nice vote of respect for the artistry.

Yea, I like RCPM, but they are not at all the same without Brian Blush! He was my favorite part of the Refreshments.
