That really proves that the solo free bird is no joke! You have to have endurance and finger strength unlike anything else to keep going let alone flawlessly! Your uncle is a legend
@@tybo8107 I mean yeah just look at Eddie Van Halen the famous solo he did for 13 minutes straight! He was very drunk and probably high yet he killed it like he was sober even my dad who was born in in the 65’ grew up over the 70s 80s 90s etc listening to music like that and even going to a few live concerts he was even puzzled taking to me one day as to how someone off the rocker messed up could kill it on a guitar like they did I’ll never know how they do it
@@goldenwolf8081 i loved each and every one of them. Their stage appearence was legendary and how they all grooved together and in harmony. They were all functioning addicts sad to say and it got the best of allen collins. Not to take anything away i think most were in the 70s. And thats why the 70s era was the best ever.

@@AA-sn9lz actually, the pain of doing a perfect run off the record but suddenly making the mother of all mistakes on record is one of the pains guitarists deal with.
This solo is so simplistic, but then you take into account the sheer ridiculous amount of skill necessary to make this sound halfway decent and you're just completely blown away. I think this proves that simplistic music can be good as can technially difficult songs.
really man, a good guitarist can turn the simple into a full plate! Another guitarist I love is John Frusciante from RHCP, his solos aren't usually complex, but his unique way of playing makes them real works of art. In fact, his improvisation is absurd, his live solos are usually 300 times better than studio ones
True, I once tried playing it and I was hitting all the notes, all the hammer ons, everything, but couldn't get it to sound like the real thing, it's way harder than just hitting the notes 🥶
Evan Russell I think what he means by simple is most of the playing is relegated to a few boxes using the same notes. It’s what’s done with those notes that makes this solo killer.
I saw a comment on the original song vid, that a guy pulled off the Solo and made his fingers bleed. And he didn't even realize until after the song was over. This guy is definitely on part with that, Godspeed good sir.
This solo shows you just how much joy can be extracted from a simple pentatonic scale. I was listening to this sat in front of a keyboard once and tried to kinda play along and was blown away by the fact that it was almost intuitive. The whole thing is essentially just variations on a pentatonic scale. Like it really doesn’t do anything fancy. But it’s SO. FREAKING. BEAUTIFUL
@@AntarikshRajkonwar I think with any instrument really, if you're wanting to learn how to use the pentatonic scale, learn riffs and solos and listen to music is important. But Just sitting there and messing around creating random stuff is very powerful too. See what you can come up with. different musicians do differnet things with the pentatonic scale (they also include other notes). Cool thing with the guitar is that the same notes can be played in multiple different shapes (12 fret of d sting is the same as the 7th fret of the A string). But each shape lends itself well to different licks. E.g. your fingers can reach particular notes easier in one shape than they can in another. Look up the CAGED system. For starters, just look at the E and A shapes. Learn the E first and then the A and mess around. then learn what's called an arpeggio (which is just a broken chord) to move from one shape to the next. After that, learn the BB box (just a box containing the pentatonic notes in a convienient shape) and learn how to transition from all those shapes with an arpeggio to bridge the gap. then you're gonna sound pretty cool.
We played this for my mom funeral. She said “If I die or my siblings., for our funeral put the song free bird solo” I love this song. But it makes me cry how my mom outlived her own mom. I miss her so much...
@Tristan Bennett I know rock but I prefer this solo over almost any other. Music to me is a feel I get not the technical ability. Steve Vai is a better guitar player than Neil Young yet I choose Neil every time.
Freebird was my anthem when I was in my 20s in the mid 1970s. Became a bass player when I turned 40, always heard that more, but means I'm locked in on the guitarist. Recently watching my old faves on UA-cam these days, for inspiration, for sanity in an insane world. The live version in Oakland 1977 is awesome, but I can never just see the guitarist(s), how they DO IT! Thank you, thank you, for this video! Great job, friend! Your speed on the frets so good... and the bends, wow, THAT'S how he did that! First vid watched on your channel, can't wait to listen and see more. Hoping my husband picks up his guitar again....
I think it's more a matter of Stamina, actually the licks are repetitive and monotonal, so shouldn't take to much time to learn but to play 4 minutes straight correctly.
I am so happy that the young generation still cares about good ol' rock n' roll because seeing the absolute monstrosity that is k-pop and pop dominating the musical enterprise as a whole, its still heart warming to see people to care about popular music types back in the day
I come back to this every year. I’ve watched it at least 100x. This is unbelievably sick and by FAR the BEST solo cover I have ever heard. You have a serious talent.
This was my mums favorite song and kinda one of mine to. It was even played at her funeral a few years ago, My mum used to sing in a band in the 60's/70's and would always say out of all the guitarist she has met none of them can confidently play this guitar solo and therefor never played the song in any of their gigs she went to. My mum rocked till the day she died. R.I.P mum I know you would have loved this guy and his video for pulling this off. Kudos Danny!
This is one of those solos that sounds AMAZING, but the note choices are actually very simple. Just watch his hands. It's all about "how" you play it. Great job.
This is by far the best free bird solo ive seen. Most people do the solo injustice by turning down distortion and trying to replicate exact notes instead of meshing with the overall vibe of the song.
But then it defeats the rewarding feeling of accomplishment when you actually learn it! (not a hate comment) I mean can you imagine the feeling of accomplishment that this man had, when he mastered all 4 minutes of this amazingly beautiful solo?
Nicely done, it's good to see that all the younger guys can appreciate the CLASSICS. There was so many good bands that were out that had Skinnards dna in them, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet specifically, but as good as they were Skinnard was still the blueprint they all followed. Incredible musicianship by all these guys.
WOW, I don't normally comment but you deserve this brilliant. Going to watch again now. I was having a bad day so I looked somewhere for anything to up my mood and you just done it. Maybe a few years late but hay ho better later than never. I hope you're still playing now.
when a guitarist gets the ability to play tunes like this, is it humanly possible to not pull faces..I am assuming not since I am pulling faces just watching as its that awesome
It's not possible for me at least... I've tried to not pull faces and my playing suffers for it haha. Looking like an idiot is the price you have to pay to rip out a solo!
thats the look of guy who really played the music if you not making faces when playing your song, then you're not playing it deep enough at least in the rock world
I don't think so. If you get deep into the feeling when you're playing your brain is gonna try to express that feeling in your face, body, voice, everything. I scream a lot while jamming haha
I don’t care that this video is 8 years old, that was mesmerizing and insane. My hat’s off to you sir, and you just earned a new subscriber, albeit 8 years late
Ha Ha....the hardest part is making it all the way through....my fingers start pooping out a little after half way through! Great job man thats a marathon tune.

Damn bro are those new strings? You need to break them in before you start fucking bending
@@souljaboi1873 or he has some burrs on the saddle. I have that problem on my telecaster.
Tries small bend
Strings: we don't do that here
1:50 how the f.. do u do that
In fairness it sounds 3x faster than it actually is because you can hear all 3 guitarists all slightly out of time from one another.
It's easier than it looks bro..
Do it slowly and it will become faster as time goes by
Practice
@@dsabbas1 one of the most overrated solos in terms of difficulty, not saying it's easy but it looks harder than it is, still sounds great though
Jérémie Kerguelen Slow is smooth, smooth is fast
That was awesome bro - 11 years ago and you're still getting much deserved kudos.
I tried learning this solo and after 5 minutes my fingers are no longer existing.
Sed. But how did u type this then😂😂
@@danielabraham7875
😂😂
Nice one
@@danielabraham7875 probably with his toes 😂.
His fingers are moving so incredibly fast it looks unreal. Awesome solo, hope I can play it one day.
Imagine being this guy's girlfriend.....

Wow
My favourite part is at the 2:09 mark and you pretty much nailed it! :D

you have never had a bar fight until you had it with this song on the background

More like, "hold my grape juice."
Nicely done, it's good to see that all the younger guys can appreciate the CLASSICS. There was so many good bands that were out that had Skinnards dna in them, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet specifically, but as good as they were Skinnard was still the blueprint they all followed. Incredible musicianship by all these guys.
lol try playing this at guitar ceneter
LOL with no back track just pure solo
Guitar centres first thought be like "oh my god some one is actually playing something not smoke and the water or enter sandman"
Isaac Canales I always play this at guiter ceneter...
I’ve actually done this and got a high five from the manager as he passed by
Guitar dude01301 thathappened
I started learning guitar to play this solo specially. Started with Smoke on Water, and learned power chords through that, and now I'm learning this.
Allen Collins was one of the greatest then and still today !! Ty for your music and RIP .
Nobody:
My local cathedral musician at the end of the sermon once: this music
WOW, I don't normally comment but you deserve this brilliant. Going to watch again now. I was having a bad day so I looked somewhere for anything to up my mood and you just done it. Maybe a few years late but hay ho better later than never. I hope you're still playing now.
"speed limit? what are you talking about, free bird is playing."
when a guitarist gets the ability to play tunes like this, is it humanly possible to not pull faces..I am assuming not since I am pulling faces just watching as its that awesome
It's not possible for me at least... I've tried to not pull faces and my playing suffers for it haha. Looking like an idiot is the price you have to pay to rip out a solo!
thats the look of guy who really played the music
if you not making faces when playing your song, then you're not playing it deep enough
at least in the rock world
Well hey, Stevie Ray Vaughan made the made the most ridiculous faces ever when he ripped into a solo, but he's a fuckin legend!
The only guitarist I’ve ever seen that doesn’t make faces is Keith Richards
I don't think so. If you get deep into the feeling when you're playing your brain is gonna try to express that feeling in your face, body, voice, everything.
I scream a lot while jamming haha
2:59 he be activating that star power
3:24 the Camera focus literally broke because of that lick
Internet be like: perfect song for vertically spinning rat
I don’t care that this video is 8 years old, that was mesmerizing and insane. My hat’s off to you sir, and you just earned a new subscriber, albeit 8 years late
Nobody:
Girls when they are in the shower:
Omg i got that 😁
Pete the 5th 🌮💦
LMAOOO. Means they take forever. This solo was so long, so he’s referring to girls taking forever in the shower
@@ineedsleeptoday2192That, and probably a gag about intense finger action. Hey, somebody has to get down in the gutter and point it out sometime.
Lmao I can imagine how awkward it would be to walk in at a girl naked while doing this solo
Brilliant, so many shitty clone versions of this and you nailed the core of it by doing it your way. Thanks for sharing.
“your honor, free bird was playing”
Thats absolutely mental. Ridiculous bends as well.
Ha Ha....the hardest part is making it all the way through....my fingers start pooping out a little after half way through!
Great job man thats a marathon tune.
