Wait, Eddie, learn that 4 second bass solo in The Choson Ones by Megadeth.

well they are very clever with the way they divide up solos, and sometimes do them at the same time.

Okay. The "switches" that I'm talking about happen at 5:08 and 5:16 on the studio version of the song, in case anyone's confused as to what I'm talking about.

[QUOTE=YDload]Does anyone else think the guitar solos on "Hallowed Be Thy Name" (in the running for R&M's best song by the way!) sound like they're divided into three parts? I mean, it would make sense at this point in Maiden's career because they have three guitarists, but back when it was just Dave and Adrian, how did they divide up that three-part solo? It sounds very clearly like the two guitar parts overlap and "switch" leads twice.[/QUOTE]
maby dave-adrian-dave, and then different in other songs so they would get as much playing each? or maby one of then played 2(thoose two at the same length as the 1 the other played?)
i think it was just for an effect for the song...

(im an bassist, i dont know what the hell im talking about...)

I heard the part you were talking about, and it sounds as though they do switch parts, although the third guitar part seems to be just a fancy effect.

The switch sounds like it would have taken a bit of work, though.

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]umm, i think you can watch all of those videos on [url]www.ironmaiden.com[/url] in the media section?
i think.
go for it, all great solos![/QUOTE]

thanks! but there is no media section haha. and i was hopin to find something that could help me play them. and do any of you know a program that would allow me to play songs in slow-mo? cause that would probably help with the solos. :)

Well it is only two solos, I believe the 3rd bit that you are referring to is the Adrians Tapping. I Would listen to it to check it out, but I'm in college, and the evil IT techies don't like me :upset:

Bastards!!!

[QUOTE=opeth_oasis]hey ive only just started getting into maiden and ive herd quite a few songs, what song would have the best guitar solo?[/QUOTE]

IMO The best is SSOASS, it beautiful brings tears to my eyes.

Best to watch is SOTC, watch it on RiR Dave does an excellent job.

Best to play is The Trooper, it's great, especially when you can get another guitarist in and both do the same solo a la RiR with Adrian and Janick :thumb:

we all know that hallowed is the greatest song
however many zep fanboys vote for them...
real sane people know that hallowed is simply the greatest song ever

Have you heard that some 'tallica fanboy are accusing us of stuff...Bastards
