At some time I hope to be able to play Luke's Rosanna solo without feeling like I'm falling upwards and inexplicably landing on the top rung... And that's not even that fast a solo. That's how slow I am after 40 years of playing and 35 of practicing that solo... On and off.

    Even as a hard rock/metal bit, it still has that George Harrison/Mike Campbell factor: nothing there that isn't necessary, _everything_ that is. And the "challenging" part is the cherry on top, irresistible. Bravo, hat's off.

  • @franklee875
    @franklee875 3 месяца назад +7

    This is what they mean by playing what's right for the song. This has always been one of my favorite solos, perfectly composed, dramatic, builds and flows just right and most of all MEMORABLE....the 80s was full of thousand note shredding, dive bombs and tapping etc, but not a lot of it was memorable or else it sounds dated today. This still sounds fresh and powerful. It doesn't get much better than this for guitar solos.

    I’m sure there’s a lot more music, of which I’m unaware you may have played on, but this was one of the songs of my youth! I’m so impressed Tim! Thanks for sharing this information! I love all this behind-the-scenes stuff!

    When I heard that runaway solo, I thought and still think it was one of the most brilliant pieces of playing I had ever heard and I had to find out who the guitarist was. That is how I found out about you and found your RUclips channel. IMO, you should be in the hall of fame for that one. Really ripping playing, Tim.

    Tim is one of the best guitarists you'll ever see and one of the most down to earth and unpretentious people I have seen making RUclips content. I wish I could play guitar half as well as he does.

    "Limitations actually create character and style"... I think I kind of needed to hear that, even as long as I've been at this and as many times as people have told me they recognize my playing right away, I still find myself chasing things that I can't do to the point of utter distraction, and feeling like I have to learn EVERYTHING. Thanks for that one @TimPierceGuitar ❤

    What a treasure of recorded and music history, as a historian you match your playing ability. To have both in a single pass is remarkable. I am obviously a new viewer but you made my visit one that will be repeated. Your teaching style and orientation is refreshing and is exemplary of what art and music education should be pursuing.

      People generally don't know about Tim Pierce because he doesn't market himself as the absolute monster rock star that he actually is. Some people pose until they make it, Tim Pierce just quietly does his job and doesn't make a whole lot of fuss about it after the fact. That's a real player, that's REAL "punk rock"

    Thank you Tim for that awesome song , one of my favorites classics of the 80 s . Awesome solo by the way also one of my favorites. Runaway for Bon Jovi is like the spirit of radio for rush.

    ​​Tim - I love the way you described the brilliance of Hendrix. How amazing he was! People today have no idea what actually made him a fantastic guitar player because they concentrate so much on the technique and not enough on the feel.

    Tim, that’s an amazing story. I have always said that was one of the most “killing it solo” in history. Great story buddy.
