Gilmour also said, in an old interview, that he likes to sing his solos first. And he does "sing along" in the Wish You Were Here song during the solo, remember? Anyway, I'm a huge fan of David. I build his black, red and white strats and play his solos everyday! Thanks for what you do, Ian!

Man you just blew my mind! And you discovered it through a dream which is wild! Tension and release is a huge aspect of Pink Floyd’s music, and this just added another great example. He’s building that tension towards the chord change…releases it on those spacious vibrato notes. Genius.

@Sinnsonido Жыл бұрын

Gilmour's solo in "Funky Dung", both live and in studio, is a virtual masterclass in perfect blues phrasing. IIRC it's a two chord vamp also...sounds like Gm7 & C7 on that one.

Roine Stolt of The Flower Kings does pretty good Gilmour style solos (mixed with some Steve Howe rhythm). My father also told me one of the biggest secrets to Gilmour's solos are the places where he isn't playing. The tension followed by resolve.

@viStringTheory 3 ай бұрын

This is a brilliant lesson. Thanks! Thinking about my chord tone soloing from a rhythmic perspective rather than just from a melodic focus has opened up so much variance in my phrasing. I am spending time listening to tracks and paying thinking about solo phrases more like drum fills. Then I challenge myself to come up with a rhythmic fill and put notes to match it.

@StichMethod Guitar love Gilmore and really useful lesson. I totally understand what you're saying but as an inexperienced player, I had trouble identifying the percussive transitions you made. I could hear them as a whole because it definitely makes the solo much more interesting than just playing notes in a scale but maybe for newbies it would have helped if you isolated those sections so we could spot them.

Gilmour and Clapton's understanding of the natural and melodic phrasing of guitar solos in songs rather than using a solo as a means to be hard or demonstate the artists skill level, these two artists are the best at making the guitar sing and try to tell a story.

Great concept! I think the idea is to have kinda like fast and slow passages in the correct space. And also, holding within a range of notes, creating tension and then scale up to give that euphoria explosive vibes. More like in waves and cycles..

I totally love the dream part! I think you are spot on. In fact, a drummer mate of mine was auditioning for a PF tribute band (he's been in it 2 years now) as the drummer. My advice to him was similar to what you describe. I said listen to how Nick if following Dave during those dramatic solo sections. Eventually, there is no following b/c they are just flat out of 1 rhythmic mind, you might say. You did this along the way, but the other big secret is bending to those resolution notes from somewhere else (1/2's, whole's - 1 1/2's. . .). Thanks for sharing. This was fantastic advice. Listen up, classmates. Our boy is on to something. . . and it's all over the place in Chicago & lots of other blues. And be yourself - but work these ideas into your thing.

@ghfdt368 Жыл бұрын

Great video Ian! This is just helpful to make solos sounds better in general. Rhythm and timing of notes and phrasing totally changes the way a solo can sound. That lightbulb came on for me funny enough when I was listening to Peter Green when he was with John Mayal and the bluesbreakers. Their version of the stumble is absolutely dripping with this concept. Peter isn't playing anything special it's just major and minor pentatonics with some dominant 7 chord triads in there, but the way he phrases the lead work and the way he manipulates the rhythm makes it a very cool memorable song.
