Highway Star (keyboard solo played by guitar)

Deep Purple Highway Star. I changed the keyboard parts and made a shredder version of the song on the guitar to piss keyboard players off, hope you like it. I made a mistake about 4 minutes into the song, but it was my 5th try at recording it and I was starting to get frustrated so I decided to just post what I had. I had to learn this song for an upcoming tryout for the Portland Oregon Paul Green School of Rock show band that performs around Portland and sometimes Seattle.

You are boy or girl?

[VanHayden105]

Boy. 13 years old in video.

[SOCOM018]

too dramatic, you can do it with open strings and good outside picking

[VanHayden105]

True. But you cant sweep pick with open strings, which is what I was trying to do with it.

[SOCOM018]

oh! i didnt know you were sweping, it looked like string skipping. thats what had me wondering why you went through the trouble

[VanHayden105]

No problem.

[Tamalinps]

Hayden you look like a chick...sorry but you do. haha luv ya!

YOU R REALLY  GOOD :)

[agentpissant42]

Dude, for a 13 year old you have nothing to worry about. Even if the video is old, no worries.

[RoboHendrix]

No! Richie did not use pinch harmonics! Glad to see that kids still have good taste in music though. :)

The only thing about your change in the keyboards that pissed me off was that it wasn't as impressive as the actual solo. >.<

The guitar solo was also not 100% on cue, but I have to admit that it's quite impressive for 13! :)

Keep at it!
