WOW. Can you play this on guitar? I didnt think so.

Probably the sweetest guitar song I've ever heard

Well since you challenged me I could certainly play it (after working on it a bit to get it together...)...but I wouldnt want to bother to be perfectly frank. It sounds nice as pyrotechnics are, but not my style and quite derivative.

Joe Satriani. Thats all I have to say. Go youtube him. Or Edgar Cruz if classical is more your flavor.

Or any college student with a music major that plays guitar... seriously, I met a kid at the pizza parlor a week ago and he was bragging about his music scholarship and that he plays guitar. So my buddy asks him if he has his guitar with him.
He says "yes" and goes out to his car and returns with a electric guitar and a small amp.
Then proceed to rip through all the Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, EVH, etc. etc. for about forty five minutes... great free show... I think he said he was eighteen.

If you hang around music long enough you will see hundreds of these guitar shredders... not really all that unusual.

Why play any more notes than necessary?

I went to school with this guy. Nick Nolan.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otrxufmsJRk&feature=related

Left for LA the summer after graduating with a full ride to GIT. Within a year he was an instructor. Only played together one time at a party for the local bands but man he is incredible.

He's done a ton os session work as well as played with lots of big name bands. Even tried out for Roth when he was going solo after VH but that guy Steve Vai had better hair. (Bad musician joke.)

Nick looked this in high school. Everyone thought it was such a talented girl playing the coronet in marching band.

Oh, his Dad was the plant manager of the local beer distributor. He!! yeah, Buddy!!!

Its just practice time put in....guitar playing is probably 80% physical at least.
This impresses me more, because the guy is a fingerstyle wiz and he interprets the song very well:

Tangerine - the original post is awesome. I cannot relate to any of the naysayers - and I've been playing for a very long time. It's not my style - but OMG...

Ya I agree. Apparently everyone here CAN play that well. When he starts soloing over the key changes and using both hands (2:24) .... I just love it. Everyones got a different opinion of the type of guitar playing that raises the hair on their neck but when someone can play that type of key progression in a solo that flows and isnt just crazy, stupid fast random notes... man that just does it for me. I sticking with my original statement... one of the best pieces of guitar playing I've ever heard.

By the way in case no one knows, that is Paul Gilbert playing of Racer X who also wrote the song.

If you insist... This was me, just before going out for Halloween last year. I had had a few, so 'scuse me if it sounds a little rough.

My older brother is the best guitar player I have ever seen in person, and I have been to a lot of concerts. Generally, he can listen to something once and play it for you.

Yeah, there are hundreds of guys that can really play that you never heard of

He's good, but as far as a song that makes me want to grab a guitar and find the notes, I'll take Slash's solo on "Sweet Child O Mine" anytime.
