It’s an acquired taste. I like it because it unites rock guitar tone/technique with complex harmonic ideas that you wouldn’t otherwise find in a popular rock song. I think this song is called “Falcon Flight” because of the way the chords descend chromatically, like a falcon diving downward.

@@Always_Guitar I can appreciate the technical and musically interesting aspects of the style. I also understand why lots of these artists gravitate towards it because it really gives them the ability to showcase their virtuosity. I personally just can’t vibe with it. It’s up there with contemporary country music in terms of the sickly, ticky tacky sounds it produces that just make me feel a certain way that I do not enjoy. No shade though. Someone once said something wise to me which I believe to be true “All music is bad” 😂

@JUNO-69 If you haven’t done so already, try listening to Pat Metheny. I think his style may be more approachable than guys like Gambale and Holdsworth. Metheny actually doesn’t shred as much, although he definitely could. I think he has more melodic ideas that might hit your ear better. But if you’ve already tried him and it didn’t resonate, no worries.

@@Always_Guitar I must say I do find Metheny very interesting from what I’ve heard. I must listen to some more. You can really feel the deep connection he has with the music. I’m going to sound like such a hater lol but I really tried with Holdsworth after him being rated “best of all time” in any comments section that devolves into that topic. I truly cannot stand his sound. That type of consistent outside playing feels way over the top and I really don’t like the comments of people saying “no one can even understand what he’s doing” as if that makes him better or puts him on a higher level than anyone else. I will say I thank him for giving us the band meshuggah who I really enjoy and owe a lot to his approach. I think the players I really enjoy are able to take bits and pieces from all these players and styles and use them as parts of their greater vocabulary. They will rip out one of those outside runs right at the perfect moment and it all sounds beautifully musical. I’ll go check out some more Pat Methany though. Thanks form the recommendation

Thank you so much! Prince is very difficult to transcribe because of all those little fills, scrapes, and dives.

He’s just messing around

You are the first comment! And I am the second comment! Happy 4th Of July!

I think it just sounds different because he is not using normal rig.

Paul is one of my all time favorites. I went to MI after high school in large part because of him. This is awesome, but not even close to some of his real shred stuff. He has gotten way more of a vocal style to his melody playing in the past decade or so though, which I love (and still can really rip). He’s expressive in the way old blues guys are, messing with the intonation and 1/4 step bends and what not, but while really having his own voice. As big of a fan as ever.

im sure he has no interest in doing exercises to a metronome for 30 hours a day anymore, can't say i blame him

Well duh

😂

Yes, we have more resources now for learning guitar than we ever did! Just being able to get any guitar teacher in any location is amazing. If you want any of these tabs, just email me at officialalwaysguitar@gmail.com.

Bruh, ain't that the truth. I made way more progress now when i'm just started practicing again than the whole 20 years i played guitar

Thank you very much for your support! Yeah that lick is insane, and it’s only audio so I cannot see what he’s doing. But I’ll try my best!

@@Always_Guitar Thank you very much for the reply. ☺ Have a great day mate.🙏

Those are half notes.

Nonsense played by one of the Best guitarist of his generation😂

Which version? The studio version is transcribed in the Hal Leonard book for Ah Via Musicom. Is there a live version you are looking at?

@@Always_Guitar czcams.com/video/safVhk-Jnkg/video.htmlfeature=shared

I assume you play guitar? It’s never too late to learn!

I love David Gilmour’s playing, but my guess is that CZcams would block the video due to copyright. Anytime a video is from a DVD, it may not be allowed. I’ll see what I can do.

@@Always_Guitar be careful with these blocks I love your content, and if you can’t bring, that’s ok, I understand! Hugs!

You need the latest version of Guitar Pro that allows you to insert audio and tweak the markings.

@@Always_Guitar thanks!

Email me at officialalwaysguitar@gmail.com and I can send you the Guitar Pro file

@@Always_Guitar Will do

Transcribe and Guitar Pro

Good choice. Is there a good quality live version? To get it accurate, I like to be able to see where he’s fretting.
