- I don't know why, but this video was blocked the last 4 years and now it isn't.
Consequently, I can share this original version of the video again!
NOT FOR SALE - TRIBUTE ONLY
This is my tribute to some of the great rock guitar solos from the 70's.
I played all guitars, bass, keyboards and I programmed the drums with a Native Instrument plugin.
All guitars and bass were recorded with the Kemper profiler.
Thank you for watching!

To the amateur it may go unnoticed but after being a player for thirty years and nowhere near as good as this guy, i noticed how he not only played these pieces but became the players themselves! He got everything so spot on from the vibratos to the pick attack, even knoflers finger picking! These are things that make good guitar players into great guitar players.
I picked up on "Mark" as well.
Great stuff....with the exception of Layla.
@@Garstonk Even so, the Layla solo was really quite well done... transgressions aside, I defend the cover as a 9.8 out of 10... technically not all quite there, but superb nonetheless
Still, make you realize how well Mark played Sultans of Swing when even someone like this guy who is really good at playing guitar can't make it sound anywhere near as good as the original.
I'm a player too and I agree - the guy's got soul. And didya see them geetars? I'm drooling.......... : )
All of them were amazing, but when it was time for Comfortably Numb you left me speechless. It's flawless.
Santi Sucks me too omg beautiful playing
I really like the ode to Sid w/ the "Shine On" tidbit @ the end. Nice touch and was the sort of thing PF was know to do in their mid 70s shows.
eruptionnnnn....!!!!
@Bitmapman Yea I saw that... Very nice. I was growing up with all of this on the radio, and then on my vinyl and cassettes. But this penetrated all consciousness and opened up a door to a place in my soul, a place called "Rock and roll?" I just remembered one great solo by TN... with Amboy Dukes. 60s though. Anyway, I have hope for the future if we have people like this. And like these kids: ua-cam.com/video/f5iyIITGvSw/v-deo.html
yes beautiful vibrato bends
Your bend is so flawless and perfectly in tune. Enjoyed it very much, excellent work!!
Solos are like a language we don't speak but that we understand with our soul
I hope this blows up and become viral... wow!
No kidding.
This was great. But you need to do a second part with Boston and Thin lizzy
Starts with Layla... I instantly known this is gonna be a lame list for posers who know 2 songs from each band.
@@apolloptx Duane Allman came up with the Layla riff, not Clapton. Not something a poser would know :P
@@murph7421 It's called being a realist with the ability of critical thinking. You'll get it when you reach the age of reason.
Fantastic that younger people are still recognising and keeping alive the genius of these Guitarists. The number of people who can CREATE another really original solo of the standard of these solos seems to be one in a million.
You nailed all of these, but you did comfortably numb so god damn good, its pretty unbelievable
Every time I hear the Comfortably Numb solo I get chills running down my spine.
When I started learning almost three years ago Comfortably Numb solo was one of my goals. Just when I was starting to think I was playing it fairly well I watched this video and I've realised how bad my version is. The video has given me some ideas on areas for improvement though.
Thanda Lion Thats all you can do is improve if you keep playing.
Check this - th best CN on YT , though Pulse version

theultimatexperience Well its ok if your not big into pink floyd, but the solos in comfortably numb are awesome because of the amount of emotion david gilmour puts into each note, instead of playing 3000 notes per second. Oh and I would recommend listening to full albums instead of listening to single songs by pink floyd. A lot of there songs end up leading into other songs. Wish you were here and dark side of the moon are two albums I would listen to from start to finish.
I literally do not even have words. I'm just speechless. Sir you are such a phenomenal musician in your own right. But as someone else said in this comment section, you not only played things perfectly, but you really channeled each guitarist. All of that would have been amazing in itself, but your choice of songs, and then the way you transitioned from one song to the other., the modified ending to the hotel california solo so that it went right into Sultans of swing.... the video editing. Everything... just literally EVERYTHING was perfect and more than that. Everything touched my soul. I'm not kidding, I dang near cried during some of those solos. You have a gift my friend. I really hope your video blows up and goes viral because you so deserve it. What a fantastic job. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
You said you had no words and were speechless, then proceed to type a paragraph. LIAR!!!!
@@ceez3841 Why don't you check eBay to see if they have a life for sale?
OK, OK...I'm going back to practice now...
Same
i had grown up with all these musics while teenage. really great and got energy by listening again. i am 62 years old.
I enjoyed every single 11 minute ,of this video 💪
If only guitarists still played like this...I still do...and always will...😎👍
Super job fantastic job of combining a great assortment of incredible leads and just killing it
Well I just got home and I’m up after 60 hours of night shift this week.
playin guitar. Learning a couple songs.
Waiting for my toddlers to wake up.
Tired as hell. Sipping scotch. This has been the best part of my long day.
Thanks for lovin’ good music pal.
Stunned! Who are you?!! You've got the chops! You played 90% of the stuff I hope to learn someday. I just started playing two years ago, and I'm sixty nine. I'm giving myself twenty years, and hopefully I could play half as good as you by then! :-)
David Bailey Wow, starting up at that age is amazing! Never too old to pick up guitar (-: best of luck
he is the uk guitarist winner of 2018 haha
Yes sir. He was the guitarist of the year winner
You will
the technique may be harder to learn at 69 but man you already got the story and the feelings that come with it so good luck. proud :)
Thats just how amazing 70's is.
Pure talent era.
Hair standing on the back of my neck for Comfortably Numb, bravo 😉
its a goodppertunity to shave it
I was born in 1960.
I thank you.
MyGimpTutorialChannel bullshit
@@darren334 why do you writing it?
Dirdin Gleb why do u try English. Stop
me too, cette musique est la musique de ma jeunesse !
egtresor wtf does that mean. I’m not a mexicunt. English now
That list right there shows how unique and different Eddie Van Halen was from everyone else
And this guy..ua-cam.com/video/2oyhlad64-s/v-deo.html
Van Halen was trash. A lame guitarist and band, for lame people.
Apollo Alexandre you are lame
Apollo Alexandre go back to gargling your mom's dick
@@apolloptx Ahh the trash of UA-cam always spouting....
man you fucking blew my mind! AMAZING!!! So incredibly played! The tone and feel is the same like from the records. You just managed to be all this great guitarists (my heroes) in ten minutes! You're a freakin hero!
This is absolutely excellent!!! Also we all watin' for 80's my good sir ;) Thx for sharin'..
Nooo the 80's just suck ;-;
@@jesusmartinezcruz3543 80s suck what? 80s was the best decade for music. 70s amazing too.
And I'm waiting for the 60's
@@alexsuperpower1 80 are just better for extreme metal music not for hard/blues rock, and 80 wasn't the best decade, there were too many genius bands in 60-70s so it's incomparable to 80's.
Of course, at my age, I remember every one of those pieces. Most I learned back in the day. Maybe my ears are just getting old and wonky, but damn it all, you actually played each and every one better than how I remember them being played by the original artists -- better technique and certainly much better feeling. Just astoundingly wonderful. I know I'll probably get clobbered for saying that, but the fact is: it is true. You are an astonishingly superior guitarist. And thank you for making this video for all of us -- all of us who remember.
Great playing. The only problem is that it may inspire someone to post the greatest drum solos....
scat4me and what then?!
scat4me 🙉😂😂😂
Notice that Kemper 💪💣😎
Or worse, bass solos.
tryptychUK 😱😲🙉🤣
I Q Geez relax dude- it's just a joke .....
Thank God I got to live every single one of them, and still listen to them, driving, at home, at work, wherever. Good ol' times when there was musicians doing some serious stuff. Long live rock'n'roll. Good job, mate.
tone +++ feeling +++ amazing :) ps: that comfortably numb solo is really special
wonderful and beyond. I accept I will never be able to make a guitar sound like this but I sure enjoy watching others that can and do.
What about 1974?
I Got The Fire by Montrose
This is amazing.
Each solo could have easily been a separate video, because the tone was perfect for every song.
But the way you transitioned between them all was just incredible - this channel has to go viral.
No Zz Top? Sad. =(
Yes, maybe Blue Jeans Blues instead of Bohemiem Rapsody ('75)
Awesome bending technique, perfectly in tune and super controlled vibrato. Miles ahead of most guys
What a fantastic trip!!! Man you really hit my heart with the best solos ever played in perfect way! Nice job!!
There are a few guitarists that can bring the instrument to life, and then, the rest of us standing in awe. Totally amazing talent !!!
One of the best cover versions I have seen live or on video. Great work
What's most amazing is that you nailed a ton of intricacies in these solos. You weren't just playing the notes. You attacked them how the guys playing them did and that's simply astonishing. Mad props.
Every note is hit with precision, that it would hard to distinguish from the real thing. Even knopfler's fingerpicking is on display. Great playing Dude!!!!!
Gabriel, you just took me on a 10 year journey in a little over 11 minutes. Great job brother!
Fantastic, I hope you do now the best decade for rock music, the 80's.
You're one of the few people who can truly put "Guitarist" behind their name and deserve it. Well done
makes me smile, thank you lord for music!
Comfortably AWESOME!! A truly amazing and jaw dropping performance
Does this guy realize how talented he is.....it’s absolutely amazingly perfection ...not to mention scary as well how exactly he sounds.......what’s his dna I want some of it......!!!!!
I must have watched this like 10 times......hell if I could play just one note.... nice going...and thanks for the video
This video was a journey to heaven. Nice performing all along the riffs.
Freakin' awesome. If I could have one wish, people say to be able to fly, be invisible, etc. Nope, I wish I could play a perfect guitar, kind of what you just did. Nicely done.
Those are the best solo covers that I have ever seen in my entire life!! Dope!
You rock dude . This was a whole lot of fun to listen to too for those of us raised on radio .
So you are searching on youtube for great riffs, this guy nails them all and somehow you decide to give a thumbs down.. Screw you! This is a true maestro!
Sat here numb and in silence...
I think that was the most enjoyable 11 minutes and 21 seconds of my life.
♥🏆♥🏆♥🏆♥🏆♥
Had an eargasm 7:57 onwards!
Thank you for making my day! You totally rocked it.
That was very nice ! Mark Knofler is hard to play for many - if they try to play like he did - he played all his stuff with no pick at all ! Great job there.
That Stairway to Heaven solo is one of the most incredible solos of all time !
Europa was awesome ! In 1980, when Led Zeppelin was on their last tour ever in Europe - Carlos Santana gave them a shout out right before he played "Europa" at his show ! Love that song.
So emotional.. So technically... Good work, braza! 🤘Salute from Vladivostok, Russia!
damn man, those tones were unreal! you absolutely killed it!
Just when you think you're becoming an ok guitar player after 40 odd years a dude like this comes along and it's back to the drawing board. Incredible, what a talent. Only thing that’s missing is Sylvia by Focus and a Genesis/Steve Hackett track :-)
Great choices, superb playing and nice tones. Nice to hear both Felder's and Walsh's solos but my favorite solo of all time is on "One of These Nights". Still gives me goosebumps. Good job - keep it up and Be Cool.
Awesome guitar playing! I've never quite seen another guitarist online who can capture the same feel as much as the players themselves did!
Great selection showing the power and virtuosity of the electric guitar at full tilt. The Blackmore solo takes this by a mile, I don't know why but I just know. How many guitar players would agree?
I just realized all of my favorite guitar solos are from 70's.
Man, your are truly amazing. Your playing is out of this world.
This is an amazing video. Taken me right back to my youth! Bring it on!!
This was so nice to hear. It's like taking a trip back to my garage band days and hearing that guy, who just came around to listen to you play, pick up the guitar and blow everyone out of the water. Well done.
This guy is just sick! If any of these came on the radio, I'd never blink an eye thinking they weren't the originals.
You my friend are an absolute talented genius...the BEST on YT barr none.
Comfortably numb still dominating every guitar solo. Gimour must have been floating on a different plane of existence when he wrote that fucking solo. Still the perfect guitar solo in my mind. Great vid, great playing. You performed eruption very well.
Very beautiful playing, and your guitars so pretty colors and sound. Audio mixing is highest quality. Thank you, I listen with pleasure
houa houa, le jeu, le groove, les morceaux choisis, le son.......vraiment bravo super top niveau
Brilliant solos. I notice the 'all flash, no substance' of Van Halen was followed by the genius of Dave Gilmour's comfortably numb, truly one of the greatest solos of al time
really appreciate this much more feel music had back in the day so this video was by far one of my favorite homages to the 70's solos
Impressionante come nella lista di alcuni dei migliori soli degli anni '70 sia possibile individuare tra i migliori assoli tra i meglio 10 mai fatti.
Vittoriano Filosa Oggettivamente, Comfortably Numb è una spanna sopra tutti gli altri. Il miglior assolo di tutti i tempi insieme a quello di Time.
Flawless performances and tone like having honey dripped in my ears. Thanks.
What a great way to end a beautiful decade.
Holy smokes son, i though i've hear everything, but this takes the cake.... such precision, such great tone, all those bends to perfection... i know that took years and years of hands on the strings, you have an astounding ear. You are gifted....
That was one of the best UA-cam videos ever!!!! Thanks man !!!
Okay, that was awesome. And sometimes you forget how great some of those solos were, so now I'm off to find me some Skynyrd and some Floyd. Thanks for the vid!
How good man! Flawless is the understatement of the century 😍🙏🏼
The Santana part is just awesome . Loved it all also favs include sultans of swing . Comfortably numb. Wow !
This is really quite good. Knowing how to play at least a few of these solos, I know the kind of time required to not only learn them, but attain a reasonable level of proficiency playing them. Well done my friend! Don't know why this doesn't have more views...
As a drummer and non-guitar player, I didn't realize the iconic Free Bird solo was so compact into those three little frets. That was eye-opening!
Wow! One of the best guitarist I've never seen before! 😮
Fantastic! I was especially blown away by Comfortably Numb - my favourite guitar solo ever.
Brilliant.I know some bits & pieces of these solos but never had it down like you. Well Done.
Wow i've been playing some of those solos and I can't see myself that good. You made me realize that practice and more dedication is important to get better. Keep it up, you got yourself a new subscriber. 👌
this was literally the greatest thing i have ever seen
Truly EPIC! Great playing and I agree with all of your choices. Great video, great playing!
Was pleasantly surprised to get a little Sultans of Swing in there :) excellent job on all of the solos!
You've captured every element of a perfectly chosen selection of great 70's solo's, from the technical, playing & reproduced sound aspects. Truly stunning, congrats. What I like the most though, is your obvious passion for the music, you clearly love what you do. Excellent work!!
Truly amazing playing man... I enjoyed listening to this so much I may have to come back to this video a lot more times.
That is amazing!! I'd love to see you play 2 of my all time favorite guitar solos. Both are ending solos... The end of Hitchin' a Ride and Who's crying now. I love great guitar players. Can't remember the last time I heard a good guitar solo. It's truly a lost art. Thanks
Very nice touch at the end with the riff from Shine on You Crazy Diamond.
The transition to Europa was lovely. This whole video feels like watching the overture for your favorite musical
That was great! You're awesome. Thank you sir, you ROCK!
This was phenomenal. And I just have to say....some notes just can’t be pulled off without the stink face! FACTS!!!!
I am almost speechless. Fantastic tones and voices, great guitars, stellar playing. I am 61 years old and have been playing guitar since about grade 5. This was the music I grew up into, and have seen so many others including myself, try to emulate but I have never seen any as good as you have demonstrated. You have good strong hands, long fingers, a great ear and much talent. I've been casually playing twice as long as you may have even been around but I pale in comparison to you. I hope your talent leads you to fulfillment and satisfaction. Good operation of recording/editing/video as well!! A+++++
Bravo!! That's how you rip.through iconic solos
Best guitar video possibly ever made well done sir hats off to you! Wish there was a tip jar!!! Rock on 🤘🤙
Awesome, I've only heard all these songs a 1000 times now, no wait make that 1001 times. Thanks!
Mate that was fantastic. i could not bothered with covers but this is inspiring!
Abdsolutely fantastic. Looking forward to more videos like this when you have the time. The 80’s have some killer solos waiting to be conquered by you.
I like the way you change Guitars for the track you are playing, the PRS for Santana stood out for me, and as mentioned previously " Comfortably Numb " is a standout here. Nice One Mate.....
I watched tons of videos of someone playing guitar, but this is NO1! Man you are killing it!!!
Great playing dude ... Every note, every bend is spot on. My jaw is still laying on the floor ( have to pick it up soon, 5 second rule you know ). Anyway, greetings from Belgium, Europe and i salute you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I've heard a few dozen half-decent versions of the Stairway To Heaven solo over the years, mostly mechanical and technical but I actually like your take on it. It's got some soul and accents of your own voice.
You also destroyed it with Freebird.
Comfortably Numb. Damn dude. I don't know what you're channeling, but I can feel the pain.
Awesome! And THANK YOU for not putting 2 minutes of "explaining my youtube channel" in front of the video, like most are doing recently
