Punk came along and grunge made guitar solos uncool Picture Quote #1

The most important part of any rock song is the guitar solo Picture Quote #1

When I started doing sessions, the guitar was in vogue. I was playing solos every day Picture Quote #1

So you do shorter versions of the hits, or you take out a long guitar solo or things like that to make time for the hits and new music as well. But I don’t think any of us ever get to do as much new music as we would like to Picture Quote #1

On ‘Metallica,’ I recorded six or seven different guitar solos for almost every song, took the best aspects of each solo, mapped out a master solo and made a composite. Then I learned how to play the composite solo, tightened it up and replayed it for the final version Picture Quote #1

Just as with a guitar, you can improvise a guitar solo, and they’d probably be similar each time, but they won’t be exactly the same. With the word, it’s probably a bit freer than that. I probably repeat myself more musically than I do verbally Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it’s the mistakes that end up leading you into new territory .. like the guitar solo on ‘Peelin’ Taters’ - I had some speaker problems, but the tone ended up sounding better than if I had new speakers .. it’s a 60’s Nashville, ‘uptown’ thing Picture Quote #1

I STILL APPROACH A SCENE AS ONE WOULD APPROACH A GUITAR SOLO. YOU DON’T EXACTLY KNOW HOW YOU’RE GOING TO PHRASE THIS OR THAT. WHICH I THINK IS BEAUTIFUL. THAT IDEA OF CHANCE Picture Quote #1

I don’t like guitar solos that are like, ‘Look at me, look at me!’ I like guitar solos that are little songs within the songs Picture Quote #1

And I’ve also come to the conclusion that, as far as guitar solos and things like that are concerned, it’s more important to complement the music rather than take away from it Picture Quote #1

Guitar solos bore the hell out of me. Only a few guitarists interest me, and it’s not about the solos they play, it’s about the grooves they create Picture Quote #1

I’ll get up there and I’ll do my guitar solos in one of those space outfits Picture Quote #1

Listening to as many guitar solos as possible is the best method for someone in the early stages. But saxophone solos can be helpful. They’re interesting because they are all single notes, and therefore can be repeated on the guitar. If you can copy a sax solo you’re playing very well, because the average saxophonist can play much better than the average guitarist Picture Quote #1

I think that the blues is in everything, so it’s not possible to neglect it. You hear somebody go ‘Ooh ooh oooh,’ and that’s the blues. You hear a rock n’ roll song. That’s the blues. Somebody playing a guitar solo? They’re playing the blues Picture Quote #1

You know, when Michael Jackson does the moonwalk, he’s showing off! When Prince or Hendrix do a guitar solo, it’s confidence! I would hate to be at a show and some nervous wreck is sweating up there and doesn’t feel like he deserves to be there Picture Quote #1

It really shocked me just to hear of the fans’ response to ‘St. Anger’ not having guitar solos Picture Quote #1

I would have to say I’m bored with the standard rock, guitar solos, but I’ve done it for five albums now, and this time I wanted to go in a completely different direction. I wasn’t interested in showing off any more Picture Quote #1

From now on all of my guitar solos will be in morse code Picture Quote #1

My dad is a huge rock and roll lead guitar fan. I didn't even really know that until recently. Everything has to have a guitar solo in it Picture Quote #1

Guitar solos, to me, should be a really articulate way to make fun of guitar solos Picture Quote #1

I can draw with sound. That’s the most useful thing I learned in terms of what my craft is... The arrangements were mine. They were little lines and stuff that I had written myself... And I was locked into this idea that vocals didn’t count, melodies didn’t count, songwriting craftsmanship didn’t count. The only thing that counted was high arching guitar solos Picture Quote #1
