Dave Mustaine Guitar Solo 1984 (Into The Lungs Of Hell/Quicksand)

This is taken from the 1984 show with Kerry King. The first part of the solo is based around Into The Lungs Of Hell and the second part is called Quicksand, and in Quicksand you can see David Ellefson playing along :O

[@saucer1017]

Are we going to ignore how Junior is shredding to???

[@AllForMarketing]

At least now we know which is the correct "Into the lungs of hell" solo tab :p

[@sygmermartins6082]

Do we?

[@ruaribunn4636]

Yeah it helps

[@kennyscp]

no, we haven't

[@thunkjunk]

Only two live versions I can find now and he skips the part I need. The second solo triplets. 24e 12e 12b I think. You have to bar the 12th fret with your thumb in order to reach the 24e with your pinky, then pull to 12e then pick 12b.....I think.

[@Koven_Sabbath]

​​@@thunkjunkThere are sadly no live versions of that version. I'm not sure if there's soundboard recordings from 198 Of into the lungs of hell I can't seem to find any.

[@scartissue121]

Mustaine, Ellefson, Kerry King and a dude called Lee Rausch who played a couple of shows with them in 1984 :)

[@EternalxFrost]

Lee Rausch actually recorded the Last Rites demo, when Megadeth was just Mustaine, Ellefson and Rausch.

[@Nissardpertugiu]

Raush was brutal as fuck

[@dime6878]

Rip lee raush 😢

[@Defiled007]

Junior playing along is fucking amazing...

[@Glamosapien]

Imagine if dave mustaine had stayed as a leas guitarist for the his career the guy had mad chops and styles

[@nativeketchumhd]

If he wasn’t a guitarist he wouldn’t be Dave lol 😂

[@shred9475]

he is not good at lead

[@Glamosapien]

@@shred9475 hes decent at leads now he was much better in his younger years when he literally only played lead guitarist in bands . Your comment is lacking a lot of perspective, pretty easy to know if he had stayed playin lead he would’ve improved he had awesome solos on the first 3 albums

[@Focusyn]

Yeah, too bad he's an alcoholic hot head.

[@theendpyro4757]

he was always the lead guitarist

[@kiski1983]

So far so good

[@scartissue121]

@SlaytanicMetalFace Part of this solo has the solo that features in the beginning of Into the lungs of hell, he just happens to have created it 4 years prior to it being released :)

[@MegaMustaine666]

the king!!

[@LRS905]

Damn. And Metallica dumped him for what´s his name? Actually our gain, what would be life without Megadeth? ;-)

[@LSweet2007]

RL R They fired him because of his personality and drug abuse not for his talent.

[@tedzeiller2711]

LSweet2007 yea he's a terrible person but a great guitarist

Dave mustaine is a great person and im glad he got kicked out if metallica because hes better than anyone thats gone in or oht if that band since

[@KISSAceGenePaulPete1]

MUSTAINE FOR PRESIDENT!!

[@Kevsy83]

So if Chris and Gar weren't even in the band yet, who was playing? :O

[@SlaytanicMetalFace]

Into The Lungs Of Hell?? so far so good so what was realeased in 1988 i'm confused

[@jdsv8601]

SlaytanicMetalFace it was written way before it was released

[@EternalxFrost]

By 1984, Dave already had material for half of the 3 first records... Rust In Peace... Polaris was written when he was 18 years old or something

[@user-el6lt8fr3x]

Mikkåel Yvessen dave wrote some of ‘set the world afire’ on the bus trip back to CA after getting the boot from tallica. Dave also wrote ‘jump in the fire’ when he was like 15 if I recall correctly

[@franekpyzel6943]

yeah it sure has to mean it was written that same year

[@scartissue121]

@Supershackda About time ;P

[@fren3zyluvsbs344]

We da chosen ones

[@3halfshadows]

@scartissue121 i meant the song(like the song they played before daves solo, you can hear the last note). It might have been written before they joined.

[@yosimite20]

it sounds like hes playing evil eye by yngwie malmsteen at the beginning

[@Granite165]

The lick at 1:00 on is awful close to part the intro solo to Hot On Your Heels off Steeler's S/T, which was '83. Kind of thinking that's why he dropped that part.

[@SMWhit3out]

haha dude sweet upload qualitys not bad

[@bonninostz]

@flyyspit how is it not dave the only reason i could see it isnt is that into the lungs of hell was released in 1988 and this was in 84, but , in his biography , dave said he wrote into the lungs of hell after he was fired and on a bus ride home, he was originally gonna call the song megadeth

[@scartissue121]

@bonninostz No dude your thinking of set the world afire: "the arsenal of megadeth cant be rid they said" However, if you're still in doubt watch the rest of this bootleg, its at berkeley, its clearly dave as kerry king is playing and its all oldschool megadeth songs, some even unfinished

[@julian.castro18]

please stop deforming the ratio! its 4:3 not 16:9

[@scartissue121]

Blood in the water was overdubbed however... playing in the studio is alot different

[@allanmherrera]

@Estranged68 theres only 3 of em so they must be romping as we speak

[@scartissue121]

@3halfshadows Not quite, Chris and Gar weren't even in the band yet!

[@craigusselman546]

dave pretty much has the same hairstyle bless his whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

[@666thrashmaster]

@SlaytanicMetalFace yea a lot of daves stuff wasn't put on albums right away like the song set the world afire was written in 82 when he was on the 4 day bus cause he got kicked out of metallica

[@reachmast3432]

Does anyone know how to play the 1:00 part it sounds so sick

[@Malakaiii.u]

Its like some part of the solo of mustaine in black friday its sounds familiar

[@wretchedsaint8847]

Similar to the lick he does in Black Friday before Chris solo near the end. It’s a diminished melody that chromatically ascends the neck.

[@3halfshadows]

were they finishing up kimb there?

I love Dave don't get me wrong but he's definitely trying to imitate Gary Moore's freestyle solos from 'End of the World and 'Murder in the Sky.' NOTHING has more balls than those solos!!

[@danielweisglass5154]

gary inst chromatic based. the only similar thing is the picking speed and rawness
