The fact that you even HAVE a Lado, let alone played one on this is awesome.
I bought it new in 1991 so it's actually my oldest guitar but still a great superstrat! 😊
@@LicksOfTheBeast is Lado is a very expensive guitar ?
i had also purchased my 1st electric guitar in summer of 1991 when i was 13 years old.
But then i sold it off in Autumn of 1995 when i was 17.
Then i never played any guitar ever again in the next 27 years after that.
Now (in 2022) i am all of a sudden thinking to make a comeback into playing the guitar again.
That's awesome! I hope you follow through with that because playing music is very rewarding.
Lado is a Canadian boutique guitar company... They had the more budget-friendly Hawk Series made in Korea but the Canadian made guitars like this one were definitely more expensive...around the same price as other high end guitars but well worth the money!
@@LicksOfTheBeast
Holy Shit !
i just checked on eBay and it is £3,000 for a LADO guitar.
That is even more expensive than a Fender Stratocaster (like Janick Gers's guitar) or a Gibson Epiphone (like Angus Young's guitar).
@@LicksOfTheBeast
The reason why i had sold my guitar in Autumn of 1995 was because i was studying for my final exams in High School and i did not want any distractions (such as playing the guitar) and at the time i thought that "i will go back to playing the guitar some day in the future"
but that day never came at all in the last 27 years, until now.
Also at the time i thought to myself "what's the point in playing the guitar ? it's not exactly as if i am going to become a famous rock star musician or anything like that".
So at the time i thought it was pointless.
This has got to be my favorite Maiden song ever!
Bind us all together
Ablaze with hope and free
No storm or heavy weather
Will rock the boat you'll see
The time has come to close your eyes
And still the wind and rain
For the one who will be king
Is the watcher in the ring
It is you, oh
It is you
The eyes of the nile are opening you ll see.....😎😎
One of my favorite Dave and Adrian trade-off solos of all time. An absolute classic in which to this day remains epic!
Bruce's performance here is LEGENDARY
Yessssss!!
I straight up grew up on Iron Maiden bro !!!!(there the best ))
That riff always spin around my head for more than 30 years😃😃🤣👍🍻🍻😁
I can't get over the journey this track takes us on. Labyrinthine, perhaps. It's just incredibly deep and there's always something new to appreciate with every listen.
The opening lick of Dave's solo is SO GOOD
Just spectacular!!! Bruce songs are so amazingly good. Adrian and Bruce were the best mates to ever happen to Iron Maiden.
It can't get any better than this...
speed it up to 1.25x and you get the live after death version... amazing!
Amazing cover
Your work is so great! I play in a iron maiden cover band and your videos are the best for learning the songs and solos! Note by note, lick by lick! I can't thank you enough, mate! Keep up this awesome project!
I can't thank YOU enough for the very kind compliment! I appreciate it very much and I'm really glad to hear that what I am doing here is helpful! I have lots of cool stuff planned for 2021 so I hope you'll keep tuning in... Cheers!🤘🤘
By far the best; take it to the next level. I hope you get well rewarded for your efforts
Murray and Smith's Trade is epic, and one of my favorites of all time. Great job capturing the feel and tone.
Fantastic job. As always 👏
The best song ever ! I love Iron Maiden....just so gorgeous
AWESOME!!! MASTER!!! YEAH!!!
My boy Nicko!
One of my favorite Murray and Smith trade off solos of all
Time!
Love your channel. Really enjoying it. Up the Irons!!!!!
1000 thanks!! Much appreciated!
Perfection
1000 thanks brother! 🤜🤛
I'm loving this song all the more I hear it. Geeze, did you nail the song; or should I say all 3 parts in this video..
wow!!!!!
Everything is so spot-on! It's great to see how the song was originally played :)
Trasmetti una tranquillità assurda, anche nelle fasi più “concitate” la tua mano va di una morbidezza incredibile, vorrei averla io la tua sicurezza quando mi muovo sul manico😰
Wow ti ringrazio tantissimo!!!
amazing. Sounds just like them.
Thank you so much!! 🙇♂️🙏🤘
Maybe because he is playing over Maidens version duh !
@@thomasanderson9202 you can still sound shit, iron maiden doesnt make you your fails disappear. He just nailed it thats why it sounds good.
@@ElevatedLevetator I say you are wrong and I am right. Playing is good though.
@@thomasanderson9202 why am i wrong?
🎼 I sang along.... thank you my talented friend! *hug* 🖤
Always is nice to see your covers 👏🏼 you are the best guy who can play Maiden 100% and súper accurate... by the way, how can I get that wonderful sound?
Hey thank you so much! For the sound, I am using Bias FX 2. It's a fantastic plugin that allows you to create a wide variety of sounds. I tend to keep the sound pretty simple and clean.
Awesome job! Great videos!
1000 thanks!!
Just WOW!!!!! LOVE IT
Fantastic performance! Love the Lado. You don’t happen to have the famous Lado Earth guitar like Adrian used to play too? Also love the Gretsch too, you can tell by my avatar that I am an enthusiast on that front! Again, fantastic performance Nico!
Thank you!! This Lado was actually my first good guitar. I got it because I wanted a superstrat and I knew Lados were good by reputation here in Canada and because H used one on Live After Death 😁 I don't own an Earth model like he had but I know someone who does and I did get to play it a bit... Very cool guitar for sure! I had always wanted an orange Gretsch since I was 10 years old from watching Brian Setzer and I still like rockabilly a whole lot so I love that guitar 😊 Do you have one?
@@LicksOfTheBeast - Cool stuff, your Lado experiences! That is awesome that you are a rockabilly and Setzer fan! Yes, I too have an orange Gretsch! I so dig my 6120! I guess we both bleed orange a bit. My rockabilly addiction is real! I love the original vintage stuff as well as the Setzer era and beyond!
@@LicksOfTheBeast - I should add, my story is much like yours, first discovered Setzer and the Stray Cats in the early 80s. I even saw them live when I was about 14! Made quite an impression!
So good, up the Irons 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🇨🇴
This was so good!
Great work ! As is! Powerslave is the best opus guitar wise and I d say has the best ad lib bass fills of the golden era "line up", Somewhere in Time is the most musically inovative because of Adrian Smith's carte blanche personnal compositions...7th son is very strong and well balance, but Piece of Mind is arguably Maiden' s ultimate album because it contains more received standards (Where eagles dare, Revelations, Flight of Icarus, Die with your boots on, The Trooper) and the excellent Harris "prototype prog song " , prelude to many more, To Tame a Land...
I m Lucky to have seen 3 gigs during the Legacy north american tour, Smith and Gers would alternate the Revelations solo... Got to see 2 greats by Adrian out of 3!😄
Thanks man! I got to see only one Legacy show here in Toronto but it was Adrian doing this solo - I was not expecting it so it was a nice surprise 🙂
Perfect!!!

You nailed the guitar tone....once again. Any advice or EQ settings (boost/cut) on the rhythm guitar?
I have no idea what I did there cause this video is over 2 years old now. But these days I just use the Neural DSP Petrucci plugin or my presets in Bias FX II like I showed in the video (check it out under the gears & guitars playlist!)
I think that part 1:26 bruce plays the guitar when the recording the album in 83
Eddie would go !
Excellent work! This song is perfection. By the way what part was Bruce playing (or supposed to be playing? 😅) live, as he seemed to give up his guitar after a minute? 😁
Thank you so much! Bruce was doing the clean arpeggiated part during the first harmony at 1:07 (what I'm playing with the Gretsch at the top of the screen). He looked awkward AF 😄 but it made it sound a lot better than it would have without him playing that part.
Do sign of the cross live at mexico 2019!!
Hmmm I might do a full cover of the album version at some point - Live versions tend to sound a bit messy when you add more guitars.
Oh okk
Dude!!! May you never get copyright flagged cos damn this sounds like Iron Maiden got a 4th amigo!
😄😄 Thank you very very much!! These covers are copyright claimed before I'm even finished publishing them (no exaggeration!) but that's totally fair. As long as they never get blocked or removed I am perfectly happy! 🤘🤘
@@LicksOfTheBeast - That’s interesting stuff, thanks for sharing. I see the licensing info in most of the descriptions, so I figured you were good, but this adds it’s a little extra color.
F%#$ awesome man.
Best version I've heard that's saying alot I hope your proud 👏
Which guitar is that ?
Also the posters in the background , is it Adrian Smith and Stevie Ray Vaughan ?
The orange one is a Gretsch G5420T and the black one is a Lado superstrat. And yes, those frames are Adrian and SRV 😊
@@LicksOfTheBeast
Thanks for your kind reply.
yeah i thought that it was SRV because of the hat.
Please!show us somthing about of Maiden tone Settings!
Nice work. You think you will do lessons for these covers? Would love to see it.
Thanks man! I will definitely keep doing tutorials and yeah a full song tutorial could be a nice change from just solos.
My first Iron Maiden bought album was Piece Of Mind..so many memories with this song! Perfect performance and very nice range of guitars! New subscriber and follower..Keep it up! I also make music cover videos..Check out something from my channel if you want
Thanks a lot man! Isn't it awesome how the sound of certain albums can bring back a whole bunch of memories? 😊 Thanks for following! I'll be sure to check out your stuff 🤘
@@LicksOfTheBeast Thanks a lot! And keep on playing Maiden's songs: they are the essence of metal!
Sorry but I don't like videos where someone plays over the original track. Hard to tell what is you and what is the original recording. Better just play to a metronome or similar and record over that. Seems more honest.
Hey Thomas,
Your comment brings up a few points which I wanted to address both in reply to you and for anyone else who might be reading, so here goes:
- While this channel is a lot more than just covers, I do have some full covers where I am playing all of the guitars parts over just the original bass, drum and vocal tracks so that there are none of the original guitars: Seventh Son, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, The Prisoner, Flight Of Icarus, The Trooper... On these videos, all guitars are me only.
- Unfortunately I can't always get the original tracks but I still want it to be fun to listen to so I prefer using the full song instead of just a metronome as that would be quite boring for most people.
- Most of what I do on this channel is for educational purposes so even my covers are filmed with all guitar parts shown from different angles so that if a guitarist watches this, they can better understand the notes, phrasing and fingering of each part. It takes A LOT of work to learn the songs note for note including the subtleties, film every part from 3 angles and then edit the whole thing together. But I do it because I want to put out good quality content and on a personal level, I would have loved to have had access so something like this when I was learning all this as a teenager so I figured it would be both entertaining for some and helpful/educational to others.
Cheers!
Nico
