      @@David-iv6je well, for me it’s the third/outro solo that is amazing… the whole song is played 1 step lower for all string instruments, but when Gilmour went into the booth to record that last one, the guitar he had was in regular tuning. You can hear him scrambling all over the fret board trying to figure out WTF is going on here. So he goes up and down, bends here, super bend there, till it clicks and he figures it out as he goes that he needs to play 1 step(2frets) lower to be « in key ». And thats the result, one of his finest!

      @@rumking1391 Not sure which part you are talking about. My favorite is the 3 part harmony solos, which I think of as "Set pieces" (the second starts at 16:50 here). They also have a fourth guitar echo the first phrase of the theme way up high. very intelligent composition, and something relatively new to DG with this degree of expression. (He was doing it in Shine On, but not as pronounced).
      I always knew he used DGCFAD (one step down) al tuning so he could play open string chord forms in Dmin instead of Emin. Didn't know if that affected any of his solos. Surely The Man knew he was in D and simply soloed two frets down? For a solo on upper frets it is elementary, and independent of tuning as long as the relative tuning of each string is the same.

      Animals is more spare, dark and heavy than WYWH, DSotM or earlier albums. The Wall went even more spare, with less complex orchestration. The "Trial" stuff in The Wall also turns some rock fans off. (I'm OK with it in the context of a rock opera/concept album.)
      But having figured out and gotten good at all the guitar parts throughout, I consider WYWH to be best in guitar licks with Animals a close second. But there are a few on the Wall and even The Final Cut that are chillingly good guiat parts.

They may not have used LSD to play the music but I’m sure they used it to write it.

      Agreed… wore thru 3 different 8-tracks of “Animals”. Snowy White shines on that solo. Too bad most folks are unfamiliar with that track as one piece, not the split version from the album. ;-)
