Marillion is the most underrated band in music buisness. The sound is amazing. It goes to the brain and to 100% to the heart. No other band can touch me like this band. That was in 1984 in the fish era and especially in the hogarth era. Marillion is number one. I am now 55 years old and no other band is on that high musical level, for such a long time. Cheers.
Hey. Same feeling. Sometimes I volontary don't listen to them, to stay in a superficial state of mind for my day. Because when I hear them, my mind goes so far, too far in emotion.....
Brilliant guitarist. Incredible feel to his playing. Gilmore once said it's not always about the notes you play, sometimes it's about the space you leave. Steve gets it.
Come on guys! No angry comments! You came here to listen to the wonderful Steve Rothery play fantastic solos, not to criticize and bitch at each other! Calm down, and listen to the music. Thank you. :)

Always listened to Steve Rothery, Dave Gilmour and Steve Hackett. All masters of their instruments and all legends. Rothery plays with awesome control, never in a hurry and so, so accurate and clean. You can feel the passion that he puts into each note. Total Brilliance!! Thanks for putting this video together.
without rothery there would be no marillion.. the solos of this man is genius.. so simple in his ways, no ego just total class, and can wipe the floor over anyone.. i play myself and he truly is an inspiration...
Gig man wrote: "For me, Rothery is the greatest guitar player that's ever lived. Why? Because no one else plays with the same feel and emotion. Most guitar players believe shredding and shoving more notes into a bar is cool and musical... It isn't." Agreed 99 %; the other 1% is: with the exception of David Gilmour.
Went to see him and his band last night at Cambridge Junction. Amazing!!! His tone, feel and liquidity of playing still blow me away. And such a nice bloke - he hung around after the gig and spoke to everyone who wanted to meet him. One of the most underrated guitarists!
Listened with tears in my eyes, so beautiful. Brings back many memories. Thanks for this great selection. Steve Rothery is truly one of the most inspiering guitarists in the prog rock scene.
Steve Rothery, what a legend. The sound he has created is amazing, but the best thing about it is that imho it is totally unique. He doesn't race around the fingerboard, but can if he wants to. He controls and feels every note he plays and the rests in between are just as important. I have tried to play some of the solos and even if I eventually get the notes I can never nail the timing or sound.
I'm with you on that one, Andy Latimer, Steve Howe, Steve Hackett, Paul Kossoff, Malcolm Jones and Snowy White, all have that amazing talent of not overplaying and yet somehow in the end seem to get more out.
Listening to this just makes me want to dig out those old albums 😌😌😌 Incubus is tops with Fish's vocals, and Jigsaw just took me away when I was 19 (still does 👂💛)
Ranking of artists always make me smile.I don't know who's the best but Rothery has some magic in his hands and the gift to easily recognize his touch . He's a superb guitarist who gave me huge emotions with his music. For me it's enough
it is the solo from " three boats from the candy", a song which was played very rarely by Marillion before and after 1989... The song is really worth listening...One of the most shorter ever played by Marillion. Phil, a Marillion fan since 1983
Absolutely bloody awesome, every one. Makes me want to weep. Nothing moves me like Rothery. This is music at it's best. Thanks for this compilation, love it.
Steve's Guitar Solos are a great finalpart of each Marillion Songs . My favorite is from "Grendel" . Marillion has endet for me 1988 . The Fish-Era is the time of my life.
No one plays so emotionally.... I could always cry! And I loved him with Fish and love him with Hogarth and with his solo projects. He is an outstanding musician and every gig goes directly into the heart
Thanks for putting this together. I am not sure that Steve would appreciate that only one piece of his work between 1987 and 2011 makes your top ten ! We loved the fish days as well, but his playing style and dexterity have developed massively since then.
Mine too - in fact it is probably that solo, which I first heard at a boyfriend's house on Real to Reel that made me fall in Love with Marillion back in 84 as a young 14 year old. It's sublime.
Thank you for this! Rothery i.m.h.o. is the ultimate guitar player. When he touches the strings, it feels like angels are cradling my heart and I just wanna cry. No one ever has gotten his timing and feeling for the melody and the intuition of where to start and where to end. I know and also have jammed with very gifted guitarists, but they always end up showing off their skills, endlessly fiddling about with their strings, trying (willingly or being just naive and ignorant) to outshine the rest of the band instead of casting all members into a perfect musical sculpture of art - and the latter is exactly what Rothery does. He's a hero! Rothery is the perfect embodiment of the phrase "less is more"...
This guy just embarrasses me... He makes a grown, reasonably well balanced, reasonably intelligent man want to cry. I really cannot think of any other guitarist who can draw out such emotion from an instrument like Mr. Rothery can. Amazing. Heart wrenching. Gut twisting. Sublime. Incredible. And embarrassing!!
Just plain awesome! Saw them in concert 3 times in Grand Rapids Michigan, Clutching at Straws, Seasons End, and Holidays in Eden. Love to watch him play, he is just so in tune with the feeling and translates it with his guitar! Lovely man!
ascolti per caso un loro brano e rimani catturato nella fantastica spirale musicale che solo Steve e' capace di creare.25 anni di marillion e non ti basta mai! The best...
Every great solo has a solid bass at the back of it!! Steve Rothery is, for me, the greatest ever guitarist.. how wonderful is it he has Pete to back him up!! Love Marillion
I love Steve's guitar playing. He's in the mold of that band like Brian May is in Queen. Even if you lose a very strong singer you can continue because you have an even stronger guitar sound no matter what
Brilliant..absolutely brilliant.Listened to Marillion a lot back in the days of Fish.Still do and yes he is a great guitarists.Some of them riffs grip you and draw you in.Listen to Jigsaw..fantastic solo by Rothery.
Steve Rothery is one of my favourite lead guitar players along with Ritchie Blackmore,Brian May, Toni Iommi, Dave Murray,Snowy White, Guthrie Govan, etc.
There's alwase been the question between rorthey and Gilmore, rothery has a different colour, they have there place but in my opinion, rothery pips it to the post.
Great list, nice to see them back to back. You can really notice the ferociousness that Rothery uses on the solos and the way he utilizes bending of the strings. Definitely colors the songs with his brush and palette.
this mans guitar style conjures up feeling and emotions, that guitar sounds like its talking to me, especially on assasing. excellent, no one else quite like him.
I remember the first time I heard the hotel hobbies solo, mini-walkman whilst at work...it just came out of nowhere, like having one's insides carved out, but in a good way. It remains my favourite guitar solo.
Just the best ever, yet so overlooked. Far better then May, Slash, Clapton to name a few. Amazing player, he just makes the guitar sing, and breath inn and out!

Totally agree, also 40 years my nr ! Band ❤️🎶
Marillion are probably the most underrated band of all time
Brilliant guitarist. Incredible feel to his playing. Gilmore once said it's not always about the notes you play, sometimes it's about the space you leave. Steve gets it.
Steve Rothery is one of the best guitarists ever. And personally the best of them all.
He playes with heart and soul and he really loves his guitar...it shows clearly, it is simply magic ❤🎉
We all cried to his melodies and feeling he gave to every Marillion song...
Having listened to marillion for 30 years i still get hairs stand up on my neck when i listen to these solos
AWESOME
Steve is one of the best. He can make the guitar sing, scream and roar.
And also cry at the very end of Seasons End solo.
Come on guys! No angry comments!
You came here to listen to the wonderful Steve Rothery play fantastic solos, not to criticize and bitch at each other!
Calm down, and listen to the music. Thank you. :)
Y’d rather listen the other’s 33 years of his works with Hogarth
Your list is just a fish fan. Forgetting 90% of Rothery’s choruses..
@@gouduleme2 Listen to the music and enjoy, doesnt matter when it was made.
Well said mate.....dunno what’s a matter with these idiots !!!!
@@gouduleme2 : Shaddup !!!
any list that celebrates rothery’s playing is worth having, watching, reading
One of the best guitarist ever! Steve Rothery!
I did not know you were a fan! I love Marillion :)

mein Reden!
ele é mesmo incrível não existe
igual
Andy Latimer from Camel should be the 3rd on that list.. :)
It's the bass, drums and keys that gives more notes and rythym, you can't separate Rothery from the rest of the band......
Hello Krishnadas Das, you`re right; it`s the sound of the complete band, not the sound of one musician.
Steve is a master of getting the guitar to express all manner of emotions .He’s a genius 🥰
Went to see him and his band last night at Cambridge Junction. Amazing!!! His tone, feel and liquidity of playing still blow me away. And such a nice bloke - he hung around after the gig and spoke to everyone who wanted to meet him. One of the most underrated guitarists!
It`s better to be underrated than overrated
Wise!
Divine touch
Nicely
Mostly, those Who is considered as underrated, is the good one, awesome
Tell Slash that
steve rothery and david gilmour genios.
Yes! Andrew Latimer too. Listen to the song Ice by the band Camel.
I'm agree
@@Copesp_06 absolutely true
Steve Hackett too.
And my grandma too!
Why do people ALWAYS have to add some guy they like in other people comments. I'll never get that...
Listened with tears in my eyes, so beautiful. Brings back many memories. Thanks for this great selection. Steve Rothery is truly one of the most inspiering guitarists in the prog rock scene.
The most beautiful guitar solos in the history of art rock
Steve forever !!!

Rothery is astounding, especially if you're into David Gilmour, Andy Latimer, and Edgar Froese .
I'm with you on that one, Andy Latimer, Steve Howe, Steve Hackett, Paul Kossoff, Malcolm Jones and Snowy White, all have that amazing talent of not overplaying and yet somehow in the end seem to get more out.
PS I love Edgar playing on Cloudburst Flight and especially Talking to Maddox
Oh man been to a concert of Camel, sooooo goooodddd
@@allanmacbadger5692 yeah agree, bc of some restraint, what's being played shines through more - with such a feel!
David Gilmour and Andy Latimer immediately came to mind with me too!
Listening to this just makes me want to dig out those old albums 😌😌😌
Incubus is tops with Fish's vocals, and Jigsaw just took me away when I was 19 (still does 👂💛)
May i help u diggin ? ☺☺☺☺
GREAT Steve!! The magic happened when Fish was in the band and fortunately I have had the chance to see you perform in the good old days...
Of all his fabulous solo's, The Great Escape, Gaza and New Kings always move me to tears.
Steve........the best guitar in the world!!!!!!!!.......grendel........ohhh my god....... amazing
A pleasure to listen to Steve play that guitar
One of my biggest influences as a guitarist. His playing is so soulful & artful, like Lifeson & Gilmour.
Ranking of artists always make me smile.I don't know who's the best but Rothery has some magic in his hands and the gift to easily recognize his touch . He's a superb guitarist who gave me huge emotions with his music. For me it's enough
Nothing more personal than this, to me the greatest of all time remains "Easter".
Lorenzo Schiavetti dudeeee so true
Mamma mia l'assolo mette i brividi e tanta positivà è qualcosa di incredibile
Easter still numero UNO total CLASS
it is the solo from " three boats from the candy", a song which was played very rarely by Marillion before and after 1989...
The song is really worth listening...One of the most shorter ever played by Marillion.
Phil, a Marillion fan since 1983
Wonderfull solos on records.... But Alive...... just make you fly !!!!!!
his guitar sound and the way he plays his solos evoke allbodygoosebumps everytime I listen to them. That's what music is all about!
The greatest guitarist EVER!
Absolutely bloody awesome, every one. Makes me want to weep. Nothing moves me like Rothery. This is music at it's best. Thanks for this compilation, love it.
Steve's Guitar Solos are a great finalpart of each Marillion Songs . My favorite is from "Grendel" . Marillion has endet for me 1988 . The Fish-Era is the time of my life.
C'mon man! Give Steve Hogarth a chance, marillion albums post-fish are incredibly good too 😎🎧
@Asuka NGE I'll check it out, too! Thanks man 😎 rock on!
Mine too.......it was Marillion all day long for almost 10 years......
Ure so dammed right, my faves are the both live albums of that time 👍👍👍👍👍
Steve Rothery is a wonderful guitarist! Thank you for sharing!
No one plays so emotionally....
I could always cry! And I loved him with Fish and love him with Hogarth and with his solo projects. He is an outstanding musician and every gig goes directly into the heart
No one except Gilmour
Steve is a master! No need to compare. To me the five guitar masters: Andrew Latimer, David Gilmour, Steve Rothery, Nick Barret and Vitto Bratta.
Absolutely extraordinary guitarist! Marillion - for me - best ever band!
Draculaura for me too!
Love Marillion & the Steve Rothery band, makes my life happy !!
When it comes to great players Rothery is the 'Invisible Man'. Silently kicking butt as a member of one of the greatest bands of all time.
Great to hear that almost all of these are from the Fish era. Marillion without Fish is like an egg without salt.
Grendel’s solos always take me to another planet, what a guitarist
Grendel song itself is from a different galaxy, the lyric is so complex and the music arrangement is utterly intensive
That guitar solo was legendary
Stairway to Heaven, Bohemian Rhapsody, Suppers Ready and Grendel, the four greatest songs, no particular order
For me #10 is #1 :) Chelsea Monday 1st solo is my private TOP1.
Yes man ! i found u
Agreed
Ikr. There so much feelings in it.
Thanks for putting this together. I am not sure that Steve would appreciate that only one piece of his work between 1987 and 2011 makes your top ten ! We loved the fish days as well, but his playing style and dexterity have developed massively since then.
Every solo goes straight to the heart!!
he puts so much feeling into his playing it gets me every time
Jesus, this guy is a solo superstar!
Mr Steven Rothery is the reason I play guitar
FISH era.....KLASS....ROTHERY is unreal, fucking awesome and underrated gem
my god, This Strange Engine is probably one of the best songs ever written.
So perfect!!!
Couldn’t agree more! 👍
So much emotion in his playing!
The "INCUBUS" solo is in my 10 best solo list ever. He is essential and elegant. Is not easy to touch the soul with a simple playing
Riccardo Sandri - very well said.
Mine too - in fact it is probably that solo, which I first heard at a boyfriend's house on Real to Reel that made me fall in Love with Marillion back in 84 as a young 14 year old. It's sublime.
Sounds like the loner from gary moore
I heard the "Incubus" solo at California Theater, in San Diego, and I still remember that beautiful emotion.
Brings tears to my eyes.
Steve rothery,really emotional player,very,very good!!
This guy is breathtaking!

Pick any song off any album and likely there will be a great rothery solo. The sound of marillion.
every album have a great song
His solo in ''INCUBUS" is definitely N1......amazing solo..
Rothery is amazing makes me cry he's so good
Very underrated guitarist imo. Love his playing on the Clutching at Straws album, really atmospheric. Caught him live with Marillion in 1997.
Mindblowingly awesome> Steve is the best, he moves me to tears with his haunting solos. Missing "Forgotten Sons" though.
I agree, "Forgotten Sons" is also incredible!
Every solo makes my hairs stand in end..the guys amazing..no one else plays with the passion and feeling of the great Mr. Steve rothery.
Tego można słuchać na okrągło jest coś w tym że powraca się na okrągło do tych utworów szacun takiej muzy już nie będzie 🎵🎵🎵👍👍👍
Great list.
Incubus is my #1.
It's brings the same feeling as David's comfortably numb for me
SOLO IN SPLINTERING HEART!
the sound of Steves guitar brings me to an instant state of natural high. Love to listen to him!
one of the greatest and most underrated guitarists of all time.. so much feel..
Just plain awesome! Saw them in concert 3 times in Grand Rapids Michigan, Clutching at Straws, Seasons End, and Holidays in Eden. Love to watch him play, he is just so in tune with the feeling and translates it with his guitar! Lovely man!
ascolti per caso un loro brano e rimani catturato nella fantastica spirale musicale che solo Steve e' capace di creare.25 anni di marillion e non ti basta mai! The best...
Proberly my favourite guitarist of all time he plays with such emotion, beautiful music of Marillion I miss the original line up
Every great solo has a solid bass at the back of it!! Steve Rothery is, for me, the greatest ever guitarist.. how wonderful is it he has Pete to back him up!! Love Marillion
I love Steve's guitar playing. He's in the mold of that band like Brian May is in Queen. Even if you lose a very strong singer you can continue because you have an even stronger guitar sound no matter what
Solo from Jigsaw is my favourite solo from my all time favourite guitarist.
I have to say, this solo always makes my back tingle and shiver. He just has the ability to do that, something a lot of 'great' guitarists can't do.
I think all great guitarists can do that - most people just misuse the word "great". To clarify though, Rothery is great. :)
Jigsaw shouldn't be considered in a chart. It's a Masterpiece of it's own..
It is not just any guitar solo. They are perfect phrases of an instrument in tears.
Brilliant..absolutely brilliant.Listened to Marillion a lot back in the days of Fish.Still do and yes he is a great guitarists.Some of them riffs grip you and draw you in.Listen to Jigsaw..fantastic solo by Rothery.
Incubus... my God what a beautiful piece of music!!!!
Mr Rothery is a Rock God..... The Web guitar solo at number 1 gives me goosebumps...... Legend!!!!!
Amazing. This is what a musician should do, tell a story. Steve is a real master at that on his axe
Rothery and Gilmour
Routery and Gilmour and Piotr Grudziński
Gilmour and Rothery
His playing is very atmospheric, super talented and truly one of the best.
Another guy who is sadly no longer with us is stuart Adamson. Saw him live..could make his guitar both talk and weep . Outstanding guitarist 😢
Steve is awesome I recomend seeing him play The Lamia with Steve Hackett live breath taking!!!👍😉
My favorite solo of Steve Rothery is in Blinde Curve.
I have no Idea why he didn't put blind curve in the list. That's criminal.
Yes, the best.
definitely the best!!!
You're right..
Steve Rothery is one of my favourite lead guitar players along with Ritchie Blackmore,Brian May, Toni Iommi, Dave Murray,Snowy White, Guthrie Govan, etc.
Yes and Knopfler and Gilmour
I love his solo on 'No-one Can', personally.
Thank you so much!
This band is amazing and Steve Rothery is the best!
Thank you for this video :)
Fugazi is my number 1. And not only Steve's solo. This song is so good !
His style just pulls your heart out. Incubus always make the hairs on my neck stand up.
Easter's solo could easily be the most touching one in the history of rock.
I totally agree 😀😀😀😀
There's alwase been the question between rorthey and Gilmore, rothery has a different colour, they have there place but in my opinion, rothery pips it to the post.
Great list, nice to see them back to back.
You can really notice the ferociousness that Rothery uses on the solos and the way he utilizes bending of the strings.
Definitely colors the songs with his brush and palette.
this mans guitar style conjures up feeling and emotions, that guitar sounds like its talking to me, especially on assasing. excellent, no one else quite like him.
O grande mestre da guitarra progressiva ...
Beautiful....beautifull solos! Espescially during the Fish years...
I have had the honour of seeing these 3 times.. Superb music. :)
I remember the first time I heard the hotel hobbies solo, mini-walkman whilst at work...it just came out of nowhere, like having one's insides carved out, but in a good way. It remains my favourite guitar solo.
Grendel will always be my #1 solo of his. It's simply amazing.
Still magic! Saw him in Eindhoven last weekend.
I love all the solo's. Many bring back memories.
Just the best ever, yet so overlooked. Far better then May, Slash, Clapton to name a few. Amazing player, he just makes the guitar sing, and breath inn and out!
I don't agree on either May and Clapton (plus, different genres) but surely Slash is overrated. To each their own, I guess.
Brian May and Steve Rothery are gods
