LucSulla Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Why the hell was this closing solo left off the original studio version? It rips! MegaDave, could I please get this mix with the original mastering, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorrow Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Loved it! It sounds like it’s Dave, though it does have a certain Marty-inspired flavour to it. But it’s definitively Dave. BTW, I’ve always found very interesting the contrast between their soloing styles. Marty has this melodic, sinuous phrasing, with exotic elements, beautiful vibrato and semitone bends, plus a quite singing quality to his tone; while Dave’s all about aggression and stridency, plus using more conventional licks, all rooted on classic rock and blues. Together they could cover a lot of ground. Actually, I think one of the best examples of contrasting solos in one song is the following: Jump to 3:21 to listen to them. Dave starts with his very aggressive bends and double-stops. His tone is almost harsh; his phrasing is primitive and visceral. Then Marty takes on, using unconventional melodies and fancy descending arpeggios, creating a lot of melodic mouvement. To me, those two solos together are one of the best pages in metal lead guitar ever written. Simply masterful! 🙏🙇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Scepter Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Cool is this a Megadeth class?.. can I join in?.. I brought my pencil... 😆 I'd like to add another example of the complimenting contrast starting at about 2:17 🤘 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Thanks for posting that. Huge Megadeth fan over here. Have seen them in concert more than any other band. Did the VIP meet & greets a couple of times. Even got scolded by Dave for shaking his hand a bit too firmly before the show back in 2012... oops side note: they’re playing an outdoor venue in Aurora in August. If anyone in the Chicago area feels like going to the show and wants to meet for a drink, the venue is right across the street from Two Brothers Roundhouse location, the old Walter Payton Roundhouse and not the actual brewery. Coincidentally, 12 minutes from where I live. I’ll be there. Hit me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black magic Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I haven`t seen them since Marty was with them. I saw them form the 80`s to the early 90`s. Dave plays really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
