- Coming to you from high atop of the Shitty Vista Building in Black Lung Canyon California.
Ive been asked many times about this solo, and if I would do a video lesson. Well, here ya go. Watch the end to see my amp and settings. Enjoy
Scotti
The reason why everyone still asks about the solo is because it touches something deep in your soul. The fact that Scotti took the time to make a video showing note for note how to play it says a lot about his soul. Thanks Scotti.
Yeah!
100%
👏👏
❤
Still sends shivers down my spine in 2023🎉❤
Scotti Hill is an EXTREMELY underated and unacknowledged guitarist!!! the first time I heard the solo break on I Remember You it made me cry like a baby!!😢 I could feel/hear the passion he put it to the riff he was playing .. I've loved this song for 30 years now and I still get emotional whenever I hear it
Scotti is just awesome!!He is on my top 5 players hands down,the way he rocks and dig in those notes is amazing,make me want to play more also,win win…🎉🥳
Love Skid Row,dig you Scotti,and please can you donate that Jackson to me?Please…well…keep on doing what yall do,i love it!
I said almost the same thing to my wife a few minutes ago...i never get bored to hear this
When I clicked, I didn't realize it was ACTUALLY SCOTTI HILL HIMSELF teaching the solo!
Scotti Hill I Remember You Solo Lesson
right, you were ready to tell him he was playing a section wrong?
@@robertv9448 ha!
Search out Robbie Krieger giving out Doors lessons!!!
Probably my favorite solo ever.
Not one unneeded note, pure raw emotion.
True. Even when it goes faster, the notes fit perfect with the harmony and feeling of the song.
Worthy pointing: Bach prepares the path for the solo in great style, raising the heat with his crispy singing.
absolutely the Best solo
Easily one of the best solos from the 80's.
It's one of the best solos EVER.
@@9unslin9er agreed
I'd agree. Also Zakks solo from "Mama I'm coming home" is one the absolute best.
Agreed. And going back to the early '80's, I would add David Gilmour's solo on Another Brick in the Wal Part II. Very tasty!
@@largtr What do you think of George Lynch's solo from Walk Away from Dokken.
Even as a drummer, I remember his and Dave's solos were so melodic, rather than just blasting through scales at warp speed. They wrote musical pieces for the song, and therein lies the importance and significance of true song writing. These guys did a superb job of doing that, and having musicians remembering them 30 yrs later, is a testament to that fact. Thanks for the great music Mr. Hill. You're a world class musician.👍
Agree !!!
Me Too!
I just think it’s so cool to see that guitar all these years later.
Dude I was thinking the same damn thing!! Thst guitar looked n sounded awful good to be that old!
I remember the three X's on the headstock too.
Airbender, was the 3X guitar not a different one?? Seem to remember it having a wooden colour body... Need to dig my Roadkill video out to double check 😃
@@thebibleblack8954 Could be. He did have that all wood grain Bootleg guitar, and another strat with a reverse headstock, but I always remembered it on the blue Jackson. I still have my copy of "Oh Say Can You Scream' on VHS. I recently bought Seb Bach's '18 And Life On Skid Row' audio book. Its a trip listening to SB reading it!
@@airbender0203 Yep same guitar. Says "eat me" under the guitar. You can see lots of pictures of it online with the same scratches and marks. Pretty cool indeed. www.pinterest.com/pin/399131585713569781/
Wish Scotti did more videos. He's got killer chops, just a ton of wisdom and he's a Rock Star. The stories he could tell.
Era when solos were so musical and well crafted for the song.
Which continues to this day..? People didn't *stop* playing good guitar solos, you know? Maybe you should try listening to more music. You might like some of it.
Listen to alter bridge, avenged sevenfold, black veil brides, as I lay dying( has some of the most melodic guitar solos.) killswitch engage, Sevendust, tremonti, to name a few bands. Even the bands from the 80’s that still make music to this day. Still write guitar solos. Skid row is working on a new album, I’m sure scotti and Dave will have plenty of new guitar solos on the new album.
Exactly
for me this solo is a highlight from the era!
A time when you felt music not just heard it!
I'm not guitar player, but this solo has something magic, I don't know what it is, but it makes me feel something every time.
Cause he a great player with feeling
One of the most legendary solos ever - thanks for this Scotti!
This is probably the best power ballad of the 80s.. It's definitely my favorite, I was like 17 when this came out. I wore this cassette out... 😂🤘💯
Same.
2nd best after 'Forever' (Kiss).
Cool… I was 13 .. This song changed my life .. Sculptured me .. The person I still am today .. Literally
Id say this and when the children cry are the best ballad solos of the 80's...of course, only my opinion..
Thanks Scotti. What a solo and how cool to learn it from the person who actually wrote it.
My personal favourite Scotti Solo. Super unique, one of the best solos of the era.
My friend, you wrote a timeless masterpiece here, of course, people will be asking about it for eternity! Thank you so much for sharing this video with us all! I'm sure many people would agree, I hope you share more of your teachings with us all. Your music has molded millions of people's lives and etched a place deep within our hearts and souls, thank you for that!
Ive always loved this solo, even before i started getting into skid Row
@@graeme1744 It's an amazing piece of music for sure! I've been a Skid Row fan since the beginning, messed around with the guitar when I was a kid but never was really serious, I always wanted to learn this solo since the first time I heard it! Now, 32 years later, I'm doing that very thing! To play it right with all the little nuances and bar work, it's dang tough, Scotti is an amazing guitar player and makes it look just so easy! Just like he talks about those damn strings ringing out, he's a master at muting! And for me, if you can't get those bar dumps and correct inflections as he does on the album and the exact same way he does in this video, you're not doing the music justice in my book! I'm not quite there right yet, but since he shared this amazing video, I think I just may have a chance!!
Amen!
@@AccuracySpeaks awesome reply to a solo that deserves it. Im a guy that believes in playing whats on the album the best way can and as close as possible. I wish more guitar players from over the years would show how they played theses solo and come up with them.
@@graeme1744 Thank you! You know I understand musicians mixing it up and not wanting to step on someone's toes by playing material note for note, but when you have a classic solo, like the one here, played any other way just ruins it for me! I hear folks covering different solos that play the notes, and play the notes well, but if you don't have that feel, it just ain't the same to me! It'd be like listening to Hotel California and someone just butchering the solos, you just can't do it! You gotta be true to Joe and Don!! You know growing up when I did, we listened to music front to back top to bottom, and I'm glad we did, because it made us listen, and with listening, you learn and music grows on us! These kids nowadays don't listen and they can't hardly communicate because of it! Hell, when we threw a record on, or a tape in, we were committed! Man, I used to keep cassettes in for months on end in the vehicle listening over and over, I'm glad I did too, cause it surely helps me learn the songs because they are etched into my brain! Thanks for the reply, my friend, it's nice to see cool people on here for a change! Take care, and stay safe!
I must have heard this solo from every player on u tube and no one ever comes close to the feel that Scotti has. Thanks for the lesson Scotti!
You and Snake are criminally under rated as players but even more as a team! Songwriting, rifts and over all kick ass Rock n roll! I met you all in the early 90’s, even met Doc! Bach actually pulled me up on stage after I fell crowd surfing and security was trying to drag me out! All in Vegas. You went into Monkey Business while I was on stage and when the cowbell kicked in I jumped into the crowd! It was epic! I still have a huge Skid Row collection! You guys will always be my favorites!
Ron Figg that’s awesome
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa mother frrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" criminally under rated as players" YES!!! AMAZING players! Wow!
@Drederick Tatum Funny how that works but you are spot on.
Snake could play rhythm n solo in any 80's bands be it maiden or gnr Or metallica Or acdc.... point to be noted !
The reason why people are still asking about this solo is because deep down they know it’s one of the best, if not the best solo ever.
It s the best solo ever!
This solo is a beautiful piece of music ..tells a story..
Just wanted you to know this is the best guitar solo in rock history.it made the song memorable.just pure emotion.
This is one of the moust beaultiful solos ever made.
Congratulations Scotti.
That harmonic at the end is so powerful and it is simply perfect. I've listened this solo thousands of times 😍
No kidding, This is the best solo ever crafted for a ballad. It’s got everything, it’s got soul, emotion, AH’s and tasteful bar work.
Agree. In my personal top 3, the two of em are made by 1 guy!! I Remember You is first, Life Goes On by Poison second, and 18 and Life the 3rd.
Not only is that solo well written and excellently played, I think a part of the magic is the tone. It sings and it sounds like its on the verge of chaos the whole time. Just shy of feedback, its AMAZING!
“SCOTTI HILL MAN” -Sebastian Bach, 1991
saw skid row 1991 at nassau coliseum...then wasted 3 hrs waiting for guns n roses to show up late..those were the days
Hey Scotti, just wanted to express my thanks for you and the rest of the guys creating I Remember You. That song means so much to me. Takes me back to the best times in my childhood. 30+ years later and it still stirs up emotions in me. Probably heard it a thousand times but I never get tired of it. Thanks again for the music.
Dude, this is one of my all time favorite solos. It's not just the notes, it's the feel. That melody, feel, and monster tone makes it stand on it's own. It's one of those solos that if you played it without any accompanying music, everybody would know exactly what i was. Really great video. Thank you.
I think this solo stands out so much because, firstly, it's just an incredibly well-written and well-played piece of music. Secondly, rock fans had all been shredded and finger-tapped to death for a decade and this very melodic and unique solo just caught our attention.
Oh man in the 1989 I was 16 years old what a album fantastic thanx from italy
One of the greatest guitar solos ever. I still play it to this day. Just bought myself an ADA mp1 that I couldn’t afford when I was a kid but I can’t still achieve that amazing sound. One of my all time favorite sounds!
I remember learning this solo out of guitar for the practicing musician back in the early 90's way before RUclips. I use to love sitting on my bed with my Kramer, also with a floyd rose tremelo, and a new guitar tab magazine learning new songs. God I miss those days.
you and me both.
thisaint myname I remember GFTPM! Spent many an hour sitting in front of those transcriptions....
Me too!!
Great magazine, whatever happened to it. First one I got was back in 91 I think. Had Kirk Hammett on cover and Shortest Straw tabbed
Same
Scotti Hill you were the sound of my best years! God bless you! Really you did write a masterpiece solo here.. simple but not so simple.. and melodic and powerful! To me it is THE solo of the 80s and 90s.
I can’t figure out how this guy ever thought of all these melodic solos!!! Unbelievable. Thanks scotti
I’ll never get tired of listening to this song or Scotti’s lesson on how to play it. Thank you Scotti -
Beautiful solo, absolutely perfect for the song, I’ve always loved it, the whole song is awesome, thanks 🙏👍🇦🇺🍻🍻🍻🍻
Just thought you should know, that song is the song of the love of my life and myself. She was deaf but could feel it and read lips so I sung it to her. She was the best woman ever in my life, but sadly her dad and her moved and I lost touch. She taught me sign language, and everytime I hear it, I can't help but cry. That was when it first came out, and I'm 53 now. I miss you Sasha
So talented & so humble
All time favorite solos ever !!!!! No matter what’s going on in life I can play this song and It takes me to 1989 again. Driving my 280z and not a care in the world. I sure miss the 80s !!!!!
Did anyone else go immediately after and watch the video of the solo being played in real time, and enjoy it yet again? 🤣
Yeah, sure did. Lol
I will be
Just did. Love that song.
@@Matthew-gn5yi, especially coming from the guy who originally played it. So, you know it's true chords. Not to mention, it sounds so good.
@@Mark-um5hc Yea. I was like it's not THE Scotti Hill & then I watched the video & was like HOLY SH&* it is him & he can still play just like he did back in Skid Row's heyday. Would love to see something from Rachel Bolan & Dave "Snake" Sabo.
Toured with Skid Row in the UK for a few weeks in 2003 when I was in Hurricane Party (later Roadstar) and Scotti HIll was one of nicest, most down to earth and humble guys I ever met in my touring days. That shows in this video.
That's solo is piece of rock n roll, amazing!!
I remember seeing the overhand move on MTV when I was a kid, thinking it was so badass! That is STILL the most badass looking way to mute, and I still love that solo! It’s just one of those moments that I remember made me want to play a guitar: The Back to the Future Johnny B Goode scene; Eric Clapton sounding incredible while making it look easy; and the Skid Row overhand move in the video! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
As a fan of SkidRow, and a developer of that little amp, I'm so proud and honored to see you playing this song. :)
That little amp sounds awesome! :)
You developed those amps??? That‘s so cool. I love my THR10X. Best way to get that 80s hot rodded sounds.
Holy SHITE!! I have the EXACT same amp.....a damn fine creation
Blackstar tube amp would be more accurate for the sound of that solo.
@@3joewj Yes, because you know more about Scotti's Tone than the man that actually WROTE the solo LOL
Scotti was my favorite between the two guitarists. He always had great, fat tone and his choice of notes was always beautiful. This is definitely one of his best. Great solo.
The feel of this solo and all the solos on the ballads that you recorded were standouts... 18, quicksand, darkened room, etc. This is a good lesson for today's young musicians... Listen and FEEL to that vibrato
Thank you Mr. Scotti por being so HUMBLE and a NICE PERSON.....!!!
Since i was a kid i loved your playing style . You were always a guitar hero for me! Respect!!!
Nothing beats a lesson from the composer and master himself! thank you
Huge fan from Australia.
Thanks for this post mate.
Really hope to see more vids mate.
Love hearing the back stories.
Dude!. We need so much more of this from you! I saw you in 91 with LA Guns and Love/Hate. Do the whole of the first two records!.
Yes! I saw them in London with the same bands!
This song is soo special to me...and this SOLO is on my top 3 list from the late 80's...thanks Scott...for making beautiful evergreen Music...you're among the guitar gods from the 80's...
'Evergreen' is a great word here. Well done 💚
Criador de lindos solos românticos. 😍🇧🇷🤘
Awesome. I was getting this solo wrong years ago and then gave up on it. Now I can re-learn it from the man himself. Love it. Thanks scotti.
Such a great solo and that tone-KILLER!
One of the best solo I heard in my lifetime. Learned to play this song in high school way back in 91 or 92 and still playing it to this day. I Remember You - brings me back to lots of happy memories! Thanks so much Scotti for sharing!
I remember playing along to the song and I nailed that squeal at the 40 second mark exactly like it is on the record. I was so stoked. I didn't get any other parts of the solo right, but I got that harmonic squeal. lol
lol
Getting the details of this solo, means everything to me. Coming from Scottie himself. This is the best solo, ever.
if i could "request" another solo lesson that would be the Wasted Time solo. I believe its one of your best!!(??)
Hell Yea!!!
absolutely!!!
Definitely!
That's a great one 👍
This is a must!!!!!
Every note, every harmonic, every dive and delay before the vibrato - there is not a single element in this solo that doesn't speak. It is a masterpiece of simplicity and emotion. The perfect solo.
When someone disagrees with you about tone being in the fingers, show them the Yamaha at the end
Is it a bad amp?
The soubd of this guitar and Bach's vouce. Perfection. It's one of the all-time great songs of my youth.
Os solos mais românticos do hard rock. 🇧🇷🤘🇧🇷🤘
One of the best solos of all time and best power ballads!! Thanks for
Sharing!!
The guitar nerd in me desperately needs to know the history of this guitar
Yeah...the tape over the Jackson logo really has me curious too. I'm guessing a contract/sponsorship from another guitar company made this necessary.
Dude makes the guitar SCREAM!!! One of the absolute best ever!!!
The reasons people are still asking about the solo is because it's a awesome song and solo but more importantly people are Finally realizing that today's music SUCKS with every band and guitarist playing in some drop C tuning and just how good Skid Row is.
The solo is a perfect thing, like Stairway or Beat It, not a note wasted . . . incredible 😎
I wish he'd do a video talking about that blue guitar.
Top 5 favorite solos for me personally. That as well as the outro solo still give me chills every time I hear them.
How about doing a video on your version of little wing. You killed it on that song. That is the song and your version that made me save up for. Guitar.
TY Scotti! Life-long fan and this song got me through some very troubled times in the 80's.
Hey man I use to build guitars with Lumpy, he always talked about his days touring and working with you guys.
God i remember when that fiddle was new and so was i. Magic time and one of my favourite solos of that time. Thx Scott
I went on some trip in high school and listened to this solo about 35 times in row on my walkman. It's so good as is the whole song. I never imagined 30 whatever years ago i would someday see something like this. Thanks for the song and video!
Back in those days, I was a long hair freaky people kind of guy. very young and easily influenced. I had a huge range of music I loved. from Kiss to Styx and about everything in between as long as it rocked. Randy Rhoads was my all time favorite. But when your music hit the scene, I was all in it. You Mr. Hill were a huge influence to my playing style that progressed over the years. Those sure were the days and they dont make'em like they use to. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
i was born in 1986. growing up, i always hear my father listening to frank sinatra, my mother was listening to abba. i dont understand why i feel so nostalgic everytime i listen to this particular song and guitar solo.
How can anyone not love this solo? For me, it is one of the most amazing guitar solos from all time! 30 years ago and it's still fantastic!
LOVE this solo and it legendary to me...especially that pinch harmoic at the end Scotti - SO DAMN GREAT!
you are one of my childhood legend ! Love skid row still..im 42 years old now
Everytime someone ask me what is the best solo ever. This song always come first in my mind!
I wish Bach was still there… i thank god i ve seen them live with Bach❤️
Hey Scotty Thanks not only for giving the world some amazing music. But taking the time to teach it to us.🤪🤘🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏👏
I Graduated in 88 scotti , I remember driving in my 69 camaro with my girl that song went through my soul and that's the year i bought my Gibson Les Paul , thank you for sharing this solo .
OMG That's The Greatest Sounding Guitar Part Ever in Any Song Ever Writen in The Era of Rock Music , Aggressive , Harmonicly Enriched , it's Singing Sounding Melody Lives and Breaths !!
Thank You For Brining That Amazing Harmonic Masterpiece To Life 🎼🎵🎶🎸🎸
We enjoyed it! I m 45 now, my son who is 14 years now pick up guitar too because of you n dave! Stay healthy!
My favorite guitar solo of all time, its got everything including emotion, flash, melodicism, changes with the song, a great opening and memorable finish. Just world class solo
Love when rock stars share. No ego here. Thank you!
Hands down one of the top 10 greatest hard rock/ballad solos of all time It just hits you in the feelers Even after 30 plus years it still gets me
dragging and dropping the needle on my record player over and over again in the late 80's !!!!!
Damn thanks for these vids Scotti
It’s an amazing solo, Scotti! So full of emotion and passion. You’re seriously the most underrated guitarist to come out of that whole era. You licks, riffs and solos were always so tasteful and perfectly suited to the song.
Best Solo in Rock History. Thanks Scotti for sharing your sole man,cheers from Oz
this song and this solo will live on forever my man
I've watched this Over and Over and Over. Just never get sick of it. What's better than a song you love to hear every time? Have a Monster Rock Star break it down for you in a personal setting. Simply AWESOME! Just Love the fact he shared this with us. Thank you. 🙏
🤘🎸
Fwark!!!! Can’t believe I can see the solo note for note. The song is in my top three songs of all time. Rock on Scotti from Australia 🇦🇺
gracias gracias gracias!!!!! 31 años escuchando esta canción y el tipo que la hizo me está explicando como tocarlo con la misma guitarra del concierto en vivo del año 91 en wembles. gracias scotti, juntense con sebastian y vuelvan a argentina!! se los extraña mucho!!!
thank you thank you thank you!!!!! 31 years listening to this song and the guy who made it is explaining how to play it with the same guitar from the live concert of the year 91 in wembles. thanks scotti, get together with sebastian and go back to argentina !! you miss them so much !!!
I'll never forget learning in college music appreciation that 'emotion is the medium of music'. Painters use pigments. Sculptors use clay. Writers use mental images. Musicians use emotions. This could hardly be truer than with a guitar solo like this one. Still gets me choked up after all these years... especially watching the artist go through it like this!
Impressive. Always Great Solos. Congratulations Scotti.
I love this song and solo. It takes me back to a great time in my teens and those warm summer nights and a great era in everything, especially music.
Can’t describe how much I love this!❤❤❤😊
I never knew you have this lesson! I do love this song it sounds incredible in 2024! Thank you, I gonna practice 🎸🤘
A great band that produced a great debut record with great songs & excellent musicianship. Thanks so much, Scotti for taking the time to demonstrate this AND for showing your amp settings! I always loved the blue Gibson double cut Les Paul you play in the vid too.
