Astranged Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Slash has said multiple times that estranged was the hardest and best solo he has ever done..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scans n' copies Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 That 2nd estranged solo is my fave of all time. Nothing wrong with the other ones, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelZ Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 theyre on these lists every year because of those legendary classic tunes most likely the only music Guns will ever make to be on lists like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnyDRE Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 these need to be on there.Slash has said multiple times that estranged was the hardest and best solo he has ever done.....imo, it is the best thing he and axl ever did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauritox Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) wow i've loved blackbird solo (and the whole song) since the first time i listened to it but i never thought it would be considered one of the best ever Edited March 31, 2011 by mauritox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Riggs Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Slash has said multiple times that estranged was the hardest and best solo he has ever done.....So? Seems like other people disagree. Although classic and very well known songs have an advantage imo. I like that Blackbird song, but kinda surpised to see that as #1. Must be a lot of musician fans of that song on that website.

The Wicked Hand Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Slash is so melodic.... To me, that's what makes him so good. Edited March 31, 2011 by The Wicked Hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) So when is Volcano coming here to argue that Slash could not replace BBF cause he might have written these solos, but he cannot cover parts in some techno crap song that approximately 100 people in the world want to hear live?

Changes Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 God, all of a sudden I'm feeling disrespectful for calling Shackler's "crap" when I know Axl is a member here. It does deserve respect of course, not just one of my favorite even from CD. It's got an OK chorus, but god I hate messy solos, the one from Shacklers barely qualify as music.

颠颠CHRIS Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I've always thought the solo in Sweet child is much more appealing than the one in 11 rain, though the latter one is probably more catchy and melodic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymity Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 if i remember right what Slash said about the Estranged solo is that it's the most demanding in terms of being focused when playing it live. this does not necesarilly mean hardest or best.

WhazUp Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I think Stairway should have been higher (in a perfect world the live version from How The West Was One would replace the studio version on that list) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let And Let Live Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I can't argue with those two songs being the best from GnR in my opinion. Both absolute classic masterpieces, and both with great videos, now if only Mr Rose would put out a video again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash said it was the hardest to record and put together. If your going to argue a point do some research Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
