saturn Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 The title is pretty self explanatory. List some of your faves too. This great fuzz solo starts around 1:23 and then there's the outro solo around 2:45 Edit: OK. I used to just delete the s in https and the the video would embed. Now somethings obviously changed. The songs is The Carpenters "Goodbye To Love" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted March 23, 2019 Author Share Posted March 23, 2019 OK. Here's a little more well known example. I'm really just trying to see if it's all YT vids or just the last one I attempted that wouldn't embed. Edit again: Anyone know what the deal is on why they won't embed?

cody78 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Goodbye to Love is a great song with an equally great unexpected solo. How about Easy Like Sunday Morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tman Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 The Blues Image: Ride Captain Ride. Right at the 2 minute mark. Love this solo. (I am sure I posted it before a few years ago). I was curious about who it was that played the solo so I googled it. It was a guy named Kent Henry (he dropped his last name and just used those 2). This was the bands only hit and they broke up and he joined Steppenwolf for a while and ended up playing on John Kay's first solo album. He fell off stage and suffered from a seizure disorder afterwards. Then developed ALzheimer's symptoms and died in 2008 at age 60 from a bowel obstruction. Sad end of life. Was a great guitar player, especially on this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I'm not a massive fan of reggae but this track has, IMO, one of the most sublimely lyrical solos ever captured. 50 seconds of pure bliss from the 4:05 mark; Yes me too but who played it... Tony Peluso. The first time I knew who played the guitar solo was about twenty-odd years ago when there was a documentary screened about The Carpenters and they went in to a fair amount of detail regarding the recording of the track. I first heard the track when I was in my early teens. At that time myself and all my musical friends were listening to Hendrix, Free, Cream and the like. When I bought an album by The Carpenters I got quite a bit of stick - until I played them 'Goodbye To Love'...It's one of only three or four songs where I have actually learned the solos note-for-note - and it really is an absolute joy to play.
