'Solaris' - guitar solo (Moongarden) | Cover with tab and backing track
Back in 2008, Italian prog rock band "Moongarden" released the album "Songs from the Lighthouse", and the epic 13-minute song "Solaris" immediately stood out to me. In particular, I loved the dream-like 3-minute-long guitar solo section towards the end of the song, and always wanted to play it.
10 years later, I finally got round to transcribing it, and creating a backing track to play along to, and here is the final result. I imagine the band will be unknown to most of you, but I hope you enjoy the beautiful solo.
For anyone who wants to play this themselves, in the following shared Google Drive location you will find my guitar transcription in PDF format, my entire backing track transcription in Guitar Pro 7 format, as well as an MP3 of the backing track itself:

As well as transcribing for my own pleasure, I do also take-on paid transcription work - please send any enquiries to info@axon-music.co.uk.

i) Suhr S3 guitar (modified with Seymour Duncan Antiquity Texas Hot pickups)

'Purple Rain' (Jack Thammarat cover of Prince) | Cover
Переглядів 147 тис.6 років тому
A couple of months ago Jack Thammarat published an incredible instrumental cover of Prince's "Purple Rain" (ua-cam.com/video/X_caCWJL4bk/v-deo.html). I liked this so much that I decided to try and transcribe it. For any guitar players interested, my transcription can be found here: PDF: drive.google.com/open?id=1w32PBcwvBSzYWAxs6R9ZInfjlo2wxicp Guitar Pro 7: drive.google.com/open?id=1b7zIW7lIfF...

A cover of the beautiful piece "In The End" by Jan Cyrka - a rare example of a rock guitar instrumental that doesn't attempt to be "flashy", but rather is about control and feeling.

    "..dodgy clothes and generally scruffy appearance" though makes the most realistic and relaxed cover performance. Besides, it does not diminish the audio quality in any way. Great job sir!
