best "second guitarist" solo
« on: October 09, 2010, 04:27:26 PM »
imho the solo from Hal Lindes during one of my least popular DS songs, two young lovers, on the alchemy blue ray, really like the sound he gets there..
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

Hal's / Jack's solo on Two young lovers is very good imho.

Don't much like Phil Palmers solos.

A good one is also Richard Bennet on Calling elvis (in the end those short "showoffs", btw great drums by Chad. C there)

I really like Richard Bennett, for exemple in the bridge of Romeo and Juliet, in I Dug Up A Diamond in the tour with Emmylou.

Richard really got to show what he could do on that 2006 tour with Emmylou, MK wisely sat back and let him play the country stuff.

Richard during GL tour for me.  The second only tour I got to experienced LIVE.  During the middle solo in speedway.  It was just incredibly awesome when the spotlight was on him.

Very nice, and the way he made his guitar roar just before, when he picked it up in Lyon (didn't notice in the other 2 I attended). Wow, so powerful! Shame you can't hear that on the Simfy!

but his solo in that same song, around 21:28 in th video sounds 100% the same as david gilmour playing with Paul McCartney in 1999:
check here after 2:05

Yes, they do sound similar.   I have that McCartney recording too - it was a great gig.  Mick Green was there too - a fine guitarist from Johnny Kidd & The Pirates.   I always feel very nostalgic when I watch it - my old stamping ground, but not quite!   ;D
