Nicolas Group: Members Posts: 208 Joined: Sep. 2005 Posted: Feb. 07 2006, 19:50 Not "kick ass" but the whole of Sunset is just an amazing piece of guitar music IMO.  Such a gentle song without making it meaningless or overly childish, that total control in playing the guitar, pure class! Maybe a song that would get lost or even bashed if another musician would have made it, but still .  I also love the little self references, both in guitar and piano playing. Back to top

I must have heard it a zillion times, but today with the sun shining, volume up and baby Katie bopping along too, it kicked. -------------- The answer is 42 - but what is the question? Back to top

ThisName Group: Members Posts: 307 Joined: July 2005 Posted: Feb. 12 2006, 16:46 The solo from trick of the light is really impressive oth musically and technically. It is exactly what a solo should be in a song. I love all the songs from discovery. Fantastic solo though! -------------- www.ryanyardmusic.com Back to top

hiawatha Group: Members Posts: 2391 Joined: Mar. 2004 Posted: Feb. 13 2006, 08:26 North Star? The live version on "Complete", or the one in "Platinum"? I tend to think that the guitar in the live version is more awesome. -------------- "In the land of the Dacotahs, Where the Falls of Minnehaha Flash and gleam among the oak-trees, Laugh and leap into the valley." - Song of Hiawatha Back to top
