I'm a guitarist and I had that LP almost the day it came out when I was in High School. I think it was 1982. The entire LP WOWED ME! But strangely, even though I've played guitar since I was in Jr. High School, I never tried to learn how to play this song, I just sat down and played a bit of it after watching you. It never seemed worth it to learn the song because every band I was ever in not one of those guys could hope to sing this song, not even close.

WOW! you are amazing 👩 👍 this piece here is, I think, one of the greatest pieces of harmony and synchropation of guitar work I know of, so many artist have said that these early maiden years had such profound influence on thier careers, David was in his early 20's when he helped compose this piece, UNBELIEVABLE! I think this was Martin Birch who mastered this album in the studio, great job 👩 😄 😆 👍 look at all these posts, 😂 😀 😉 they all say the same thing, it's unamunous, (The Daily Beast) From: Scranton, Pennsylvania

One dislike? what a joke. brilliant as always. I realise Dave and Adrian have developed as players and naturally improvise but these original solos have always resonated with me. they fit really well. might have also formed the basis for some of the aces high solo licks... what is your favourite improvised versions of these soulos? I love Adrians fairly close to the original on Maiden England (essential viewing for Maiden fans)
@LicksOfTheBeast2 жыл бұрын
Thanks man! Dave's pull off lick is just a pattern he likes to use so he did it on both Hallowed and Aces solos... With variations of it on other solos as well 😃 I love both the Maiden England and LAD versions and I kinda wish he'd still be doing it live because I'm sure he would be doing something really cool with it these days!

Wow this is so precise both in tone and style. Perfect playing! You killed it man! Hallowed is a favourite song of many people including me as well. Just the recent live performances almost never do it for me. Bruce almost always sounds way better than 80s but the second solo... Not to hate on Janick, I love the guy, but I truly miss Adrian's solo on this one and some others. Anyway, keep up the good work :)
@LicksOfTheBeast3 жыл бұрын
Thank you! It's definitely a favourite of mine as well. It's a song i never get bored with even after listening to and playing it for 30+ years ☺️ I know what you mean about the live versions. I think it's Janick always going one bar too long that takes away from the power of the transition to next part.
@FatemeKhodayari3 жыл бұрын
@@LicksOfTheBeast I always get the feel of "anxiety, pressure, anger" from Dave's solo and then Adrian's solo expressed the "sadness, acceptance, a little bit of final stress, relief (which will come after the solos at the end of the song)" part for me and when Janick plays it I don't get any of that. Maybe my interpretations are wrong but to me it's just like more stress and anger, maybe due to Janick's tone and phrasing. So I just say: "this doesn't suit the song"
@LicksOfTheBeast3 жыл бұрын
@@FatemeKhodayari I don't think they planned it like that but that is a really good way of interpreting that solo section! The vibe coming out of Adrian's solo is very bittersweet and a shreddy solo really does feel out of place. I feel the same with Revelations actually.
