While My Guitar Gentle Weeps GUITAR SOLO (my own version)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


Hello HIVE!:)

Here is my interpretation of this absolute classic by The Beatles. I remember many years ago I heard Peter Frampton's version of this and his solo absolutely BLEW ME AWAY! I was stunned, shook, staggered! I went down... but I got back up with a mission... to play! I picked up a guitar and went from there. That was around 15 years ago now, and here I am, releasing my own interpretation of this solo!

A little too elaborate? I just went with it :) so this is just an improv jam, but I am thinking of writing a minute or two solo to this track, and maybe recording the whole song in my own way! :)

This song is in Aminor, and I am using (mostly) the pentatonic blues scale here. I do add in some additional notes here and there but I just jam around this scale and position mostly. It is the most common scale to use for most rock guitar solos - of course there is the major scale, but most are in minor (most great rock solos anyway - not all, most ;) )

The awesome backing track came from

this channel has loads of awesome backing tracks and hours of fun to be had jamming!

I was thinking earlier how amazing it is that we all have HIVE and YouTube at our fingertips. I love hive, of course, but find that YouTube is very accessable for videos and jam tracks. I might rock out over a blues track now :) how lucky are we!

On a side note, I have been reminded many times this week to be grateful for everything that we have and to really live for now. We don't know what is coming next, so let's enjoy today, work hard, and keep smiling! Enjoy everything you wonderful people!:) love to you all!

Peace and love! Thank you for the support everyone!:)

Have you seen Prince's version at the memorial concert to George Harrison (with Tom Petty and Dhanhi Harrison)?

Yes I sure have man! Love that performance, and Prince's guitar solo was amazing. His Telecaster sounded great. Tom Petty too, what a legend!

I had a long time without listening to you and it is so nice to be able to enjoy what you offer us as an artist.
I think that a good artist knows how to transmit an emotion through his talent and you do it perfectly in your interpretations, the passion with which you play is extremely spectacular.
