    Kiko Loureiro appearing twice, with Time (Angra) 1:57 and We'll be back (Megadeth) 04:25. This totals almost 30 years between one solo and another. Legendary guitarist.

      He's a guitarist far beyond the credit people give him. I've seen him in a clinic and some gigs, playing metal is like 5% of what he can actually do.

      @@Prognosticate Bradley is definitely one of us who often find ourselves listening to an album by skipping straight to the build up into the solos. We end up listening to a full albums worth of music just because we repeat our favorite ones like 30 times each. 😆
      Edit - Back when I was a young player in the early 90s I once listened to Marty's solo on Lucretia and Tornado of Souls for over an hour on repeat and I wasn't nearly good enough to play them at that point. I'd listen to one and repeat it until I started to not get the head tingles anymore, go back to the other... repeat until I had no more feel goods left in my spine to release. 🤣

      @Mr-Foad That's interesting about the mastering. Listening again, I think you're right. I also just listened to the 2004 remix, and the guitar solo doesn't stand out as much as the original. I think they may have more reverb on the rhythm guitar in the 2004 version, which muddies the mix.

      I always enjoyed "Soldier without faith" more than "I am a Viking" but the latter was more popular for sure. Personally, I could pick an Yngwie solo from every year between 1984 and 2002 (except 1987) that would be my top pick for this list. 1992- not "under a glass moon"...how about "fire and ice"?...1995- not "crystal mountain"...how about "voodoo"? 1999- sorry Necrophagist...how about "Leonardo" instead? I just love Yngwie.

    its crazy how time just reached a certain point , probably early 90s when power metal and prog started to get some more popularity, when guitar players technicality levels just went THROUGH THE ROOF. like if you compare sweet leaf and and under a glass moon, its no comparison in technicality. Something switched, and guitar players reached a whole new level of speed and precision

    • @ericnowak9497
      @ericnowak9497 Місяць тому +3

      Mikael underestimates his abilities as a lead player. He may not be the most technically proficient player, but his playing is tasty as fuck.
      Also, hopefully that was something Mikael was saying prior to Fredrik Akkeson joining Opeth, because he’s a beastly lead guitarist.

    • @OfficialArthusamakh

      Given the list is metal solos, you'd assume they'd pick something that's not hard rock. Solid picks off Daath's self-titled, Soilwork, or even Grand Magus for 2010 in the mainstream. Tons more in the underground. Ihsahn maybe. Hell I'd probably pick Blind Guardian - Voice in the Dark over rock acts for a metal list and that album is one of my least favorites by them.
