[@Flavum]

All right - now you're just showing off. ;-) Tremendous job, as always!

[@tweedguitar9103]

Mate....this is one of my favourite solos ever..Your sound and playing is dynamic !! Fantastic work. cheers

[@Henry-k8j]

My missus an I have always said it's a masterpiece. We in our 60s and she comes home with highway star blaring out the car speakers. I just smiled. I play and am subscribed to u , so I have promised myself to learn it from you. Shut up and play. I like it. greg an jen

[@martymcmannis9121]

Thanks for the video. Showing how the two harmonize is a bonus. Love your invisible bar.

[@Kurt9099]

Great lesson! I made a breakthrough with my picking hand working on this solo. Thank you for this inspiring lesson!

[@5jerry1]

There was a time when I could've played this easily, but never really learned it. Now, after all these years, I have slowed down, and don't really have the chops I once had. Trying to do this, I feel like a stroke victim relearning to walk.

[@jayehrlich9430]

never thought i could figure out this solo, but last week i figured out the basics, but thanks to you,i will be able to play it far better

[@mr65plexi]

Bang on! Great lesson, very cool!

[@pavlevidojevic9624]

[@kobusgriesel1399]

Excellent

[@sauravdagaSDaga1984]

I must have seen this for a thousand times without venturing to the video with the lesson, mostly because you play great and also I think I will never be able to learn to play it..

[@tonyamace7492]

You play guitar great!!!

[@MrNonaste]

I mean... Daamn! Somehow I think you do this stuff professionally. (Shaking head in amazement, picking jaw off of floor)

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

[@markthompsoncpa]

I wonder if RB has seen this and what he would say about it

[@samirarman3933]

What a f.... wonderful performance!

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

***** Thanks Samir!

[@AppartamentoB]

Молодец! Почти идеально, лайк.

[@NigelThompson-hb5jg]

This is an excellent cover and I have no hope of matching this skill level, but it is amazing that when Blackmore plays it, the fingers seem a lot lazier when fretting. Probably an illusion, but it is noticeable to me :)

[@foreigner2017]

Like for invisible tremolo at the end!

[@forbesy8568]

machine head great album

[@stevenline63]

You are Freakin' Amazing!!!!

[@symikea]

If only there was an internet and cool people like this to instruct us how to play all the classic songs growing up in the 70's - back then then all we had were vinyl albums to scratch up or cassette tapes to rewind...How did you learn all your stuff "Shutup & Play"

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

Joe Smith Hey Joe, yeah well exactly what you said, vinyl albums, just putting the needle on over and over, and that was if I had the record because back in the day I couldn't afford to buy them. When cassettes came out I thought I'd died and gone to heaven haha. Now days I use Transcribe, great program. Really good for slowing down those fast licks. cheers

[@giovanigiorgos2955]

At the beginning of the solo I thought the higher part was played in the 13th position in the lesson but that's not how it's shown here or am I wrong?

[@jadm110]

technical question; on your highway star demo from 0:50 to 1:21 is your picking speed the same for all the runs up & down the neck or do you alternate picking styles at some point??

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

+Brian Hariot Well, I pick it the same all the way through the fast part. Hope that helps. cheers

[@jadm110]

if possible could you turn up the volume of your mic, on the Europa, BMW & Highway Star it's hard to hear what you are saying when by contrast your guitar is much louder " not to be critical " I just want to hear what you have to say on the lessons thank you for doing such cool lessons!

[@backtoshallabal6662]

Did you tremolo pick from 0:50 to 1:21?

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

+Oliver Oliver YES! cheers

[@xtremevisual9238]

HAVE YOU EVER DONE WEISS HEIM?

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

Alan Davenport No, but it's a cool song.

[@kobusgriesel1399]

Better than the real thing, awesome !

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

+Kobus Griesel Haha, not sure about that but thanks very much. cheers

[@ryanleroux2770]

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

Ryan LeRoux Haha, not really Ryan. That fast part at the end is no where near as hard as it looks. Thanks for watching. cheers

[@ryanleroux2770]

Amazing lesson, thank you so much!

[@archie977]
