Topic: I WISH I PLAYED GUITAR ON "THAT" SONG

One of the most "memorable" guitarsolos, or lead:
- TEN YEARS AFTER with a fantastic song = I'M GOING HOME played by Alvin Lee

[color=blue]- GITAARDOCPHIL SAIS: TO CONQUER DEAD, YOU HAVE TO DIE[/color]   AND [color=blue] we are born to die[/color]
- MY GUITAR PLAYS EVERY STYLE = BLUES, ROCK, METAL, so I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY IT.

Hi Gitaardocphil, just joined Chordie last week. I'm nodding a big yeah!! to that one...i had never heard that song in it's entirety till a while back there, i was glued to my seat slack jawed and in awe :-0 They jus' don't mak'em like that anymore. still i think i may be a little mature to be a Groupie big_smile

That song was always a favorite of mine.

You can see all my video covers on [url]http://www.youtube.com/bensonp1000[/url]
I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Shine on You Crazy Diamond from Wish You Were Here or Sheep from Animals by Pink Floyd. Those are 2 solos I wish I'd played on.

I used to be disgusted; now I try to be amused.

Great choice Alvin Lee's riff still in my head after all the years...

Mine.... Greatest solo of all time IMHO "Crossroads" now if I could play like Clapton utopia..
