    If a solo is melodic and makes you cream your pants, it's Marty. If it's frantic and makes you crap your pants, it's Dave😂

    It is very easy to tell the difference between Dave and Marty. Marty's playing is warm with finesse while Dave's playing is cold and brutal. They augment each other perfectly and need to reunite to close out Megadeth's career. Let's hope!

    • @ExploringTheSmoke
      @ExploringTheSmoke  5 месяцев назад +1

      Now that I've heard more from the band, there is a definite fire and ice style of playing between the two, and they completely compliment each other's styles perfectly! Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed

    You can usually always tell (especially on this album) who does each solo simply by who does the more thrash/speed solos (Dave) vs the slower and more melodic solos (Marty).

    Two more amazing songs. I can't imagine what it's like to wait so long. The first time I heard this album I started it again lol.
    In the late 80s/early 90s in the USA, the Army had an ad campaign with the slogan "Be All You Can Be," with pictures and videos of stoic soldiers, non-bloody combat, etc. So In Take No Prisoners, the line, "He wanted to be all he could be, now he's nothing to no one, etc" was a riff on this. It was pretty damning for anyone who grew up then.

    About the lyrical themes.
    Dave is super smart. And always ahead of the curve on anything he writes. Imo the best "political" albums he made, were "Endgame" and "Dystopia". Very politically charged albums (although there's a love song on one of them and just a fun tune about funny cars :D )
    Best thing about his writing is, that songs from 1990, still have the same effect and meaning in 2023. 33 years after the fact.

    You have nearly finished this album, just three more songs to go. You should do all three next week. One of the songs is vocal, bass and drum only. That song is 'Dawn Patrol'. It's less than 2 minutes. The other two songs are 'Lucretia' and 'Rust in Peace... Polaris'. Once you finished this album, I suggest you go back to 1986 and list to "Peace Sells... But Who's Buying". Dave and David are the same. Chris Poland was lead guitar and Gar Samuelson on drums. Both Gar and Chris played together in a Jazz Fusion band in the later 70's before joining Megadeth. Musically different but the same. A little cruder, more raw energy.
    As for solos off "Rust in Peace", the players are as follows:
    Holy Wars… The Punishment Due- Marty solo 1 and 2, Dave solo 3
    Hangar 18- Too many to list. 11 solos. Marty plays 8 while Dave plays 3.
    Take No Prisoners- Marty
    Five Magics- Dave
    Poison Was the Cure- Marty
    Lucretia- Marty first half of solo and Dave second half of solo
    Tornado of Souls- Marty
    Dawn Patrol- no solo
    Rust in Peace… Polaris- Marty
