Been a tad quiet around here so thought I'd start a random post...


1. VVI - Animal. Yes! It looks like I'm simping but, I love those "Yngwie on crack solos".

2. Racer X, Extreme Volume Live 1 - Bruce's solo. The taste, the shred, the tone.

3. Dave Roth - It's Showtime. A great VH inspired high tempo swing song. Great lyrics and Becker's solo is glorious! And considering what he was starting to go through at the time, makes the solo even more stunning.

4. Dream Theater - Under a Glass Moon. Yeah you could say a cliche but that solo....

5. Megadeth - Tornado of Souls. The riffs and THAT Friedman chap's solo.

6. Dokken - Heaven Sent. A sleeper track with a fantastic solo... okay! It's the solo! lol Solo hints to the next track, Mr Scary too.

7. Ozzy - S.A.T.O. Randy's longest solo and a great pulsing rhythm.

8. Iron Maiden - Murders in the Rue Morgue. Love this tune, great harmony playing.

9. Steel Panther - Just Like Tiger Woods. Hands down, some of the greatest lyrics of all time!

10. Stryper - Yahweh. Probably their strongest song. Epic screams. Birnie knows it


Honourable mentions

Yngwie - I'll See the Light Tonight. First tune I ever heard/saw him. Jaw dropping to a kid that had just started guitar.

And VVI - Do Ya Wanna Make Love and Breakout. Some of V's sweetest soloing.

Ooh, I gotta play some of the first VVI album again, hearing those song titles made me want to hear those songs. Shoot U Full Of Love baby!!!!!

I did play I'll See The Light Tonight the other week, great song.

I REALLY like Guitars from Hell the best personally - Robert is amazing here

Oh yeah! We're so lucky we at least have this. Cause it could never happen today. Robert can't sing like that, and Vinnie can't play!!

Yep, sadly but Robert is still active and achieving

He is! He's releasing something again now. Too bad that Vinnie guy can't do the same.....
