Mark Tremonti's soloing evolution - 1

Mark Tremontis soloing evolution. (Creed - Alter bridge) From 1997 to 2007.
01 pity for a dime
02 illusion
03 I'm eighteen
04 beautiful
05 with arms wide open
06 inside us all
07 stand here with me
08 don't stop dancing
09 find the real
10 one day remains
11 open your eyes
12 burn it down
13 down to my last
14 ties that bind

his Alterbridge solo's are way better and sound good !

[ydontducksclyck]

he seems like he grew with the rest of the band when it turns to the alter bridge you can hear an all around betterness not to say creed isnt good just doesnt live up to alter bridge to me

[zamkj101]

Creed is all about scott & mark together.. But in Alter bridge is more about mark and his great solo performance...

[alterbridgegod]

i think his find the real solo is hard to beat, i would say open your eyes is his fastest solo, the reason creed never had solos except for pity for a dime, is because stapp isnt a metal guy like tremonti, therefore he didnt want solos in creed, stapp strived for commercial success, i doubt tremonti was that particularly about making the big time as long as he was enjoyed and writing and playing music he liked. thats why creed broke up and alter bridge formed. But we get both now so happy days

Overcome is imo not his best solo at all! It's heavy and fast, but that doesn't make it the best. And you know, you can't compare his creed solo's with his AB solo's, it's the same fucking guy! And just to prove you wrong, listen to Coeur D'alene, or pretty much any Blackbird solo, Brand New Start, Come to Life, Ties That Bind, I can just keep going. I mean, the song itself is just not one of the best songs he's ever written, less melodic than his usual.

[92796Apollo]

The Pity For A Dime solo was excellent, though! First song I learned on guitar.

And furthermore, the solos of Full Circle fuck up any Alter Bridge solo. Just listen to Overcome.

Absolutely love Marks playing! Top notch guitarist

@wilz373 :

That's true and that's one of the reasons why Creed broke up in the first place. Besides Stapp becoming such a douche bag (which he now claims he changed his attitude) didn't want Tremonti to use too many solos in the tracks. When Mark formed Alter Bridge, he mentioned that he was going to use more killer riffs and longer solos and so he did. MARK TREMONTI ROCKS!!!!! \m/

@KhmerAngkor2008 That is what i love so mutch about alter bridge. Alter bridge was Marks chance to expand his righting and playing abillity. He couldn't get any better with Creed because they were scared that a change of pace would affect their popularity in a negative way. I love both bands, but i think Alter Bridge is My favorite.

[Delongis46]

@ITMeCE I agree. His solos with Alter Bridge are beter mostly for that reason. It is amazing how much a change in technology can change you entire openion on the talent of a musician.

Cool! Mark Tremonti is my altime favorite guitarist. What i love about this vid is that it shows how drasticlly his style has changed threw the years. Like, the solo in With Arms Wide Open is nothing like his solo in Open Your Eyes! I just made a compilation vid of his 10 best solos with Alter Bridge.
