sweetness Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I don't know. The solo is good but I feel like some people really exaggerate how good it is, I've seen people say it's the best thing he's done since he left GNR.... pffff no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdHeartBreaker Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I find it lackluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Flower Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 yeah, never understood the love tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugachev Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Song is just OK but the solo is his best since Guns in my opinion. Only the Live Era version of NR is better in all of his solos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEXzilla Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Yeah never found the love for this song. A solo never makes a song good; its just a great solo. Edited November 2, 2012 by MEXzilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Because the solo, that's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) The solo is alright, hardly groundbreaking. Typical Slash bendy-blues notes kinda stuff. Edited November 2, 2012 by bacardimayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Bird Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Song is okay, but the solo is very powerful and emotional. It's absolutly one of his top 20 guitar solos post GNR ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) Exactly. The solo is everything. "Groundbreaking" has absolutely nothing to do with something being good. Edited November 3, 2012 by moreblack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaida Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Because the solo, that's why.+1..to add to that, the song isn't my sort of thing either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzydoezit Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 The solo is alright, hardly groundbreaking. Typical Slash bendy-blues notes kinda stuff.What makes you think that a solo needs to be groundbreaking to be good? BBF plays "groundbreaking" guitar but his music is unbearable to listen to.

BBF plays "groundbreaking" guitar but his music is unbearable to listen to.It's an expression. All I meant was that it was hardly amazing. Just a decent blues solo, hardly worth the mountain of praise it gets. Christ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Reality Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Street Child O' Mine.Can you believe I'd never heard this until now? Why has this never been mentioned to me until now? Hmm...I still think Mother Maria is one of the most underrated Slashman tunes in recent time. Would have preferred to hear him do a whole album with Beth Hart rather than Myles, tbh. Her Janis Joplin blues-rock vocals are a perfect match for him. He needs to stray away from the sleaze-metal shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Bird Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Agree. Mother Maria is an amazing song. I would love to hear him do more with Beth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
