Simply one of the greatest guitar solos *ever*.

alongside to Killing Road's

[@abotzway2077]

my only reasons why i keep listening to this song again and again its bec of the solo of my fav guitar player of all time MArty Friedman :)

Dave's solo compliments Marty's very well too.

[@paintsplatta99]

Marty is so fucking good. Even live he always plays his shit note for note.

[@DayWarrior6]

ikr. Megadeth's bassist doesn't play too much complex stuff, but he's still a solid bassist in terms of tone, dynamics, and timing. It makes everything the band does sound so much better.

I find it interesting that Marty adopted the jazzy approach of his predecessors rather than the neoclassical music he played in Cacophony. There are many of his solos that are decidedly not neoclassical and particularly technical.

[@christopherfarlow7288]

It's like Marty dislikes metal and tries to separate himself from the rest of the band, in a very good, musically healthy and diverse way. I don't know if it's just me, but his solos sound like they were written as an improvisation over a piano backing track or something of that sort, I don't know how to explain it but Marty just couldn't keep doing metal, he had to do what Chris Poland did, Chris did the jazz fusion thing after leaving Megadeth and I guess Marty went in his desired direction.

[@McBeaner720]

Piano backing track or not he made some damn good solos and you like them so just accept it.

[@christopherfarlow7288]

What the fuck do you mean by "just accept it"? I never talked shit

[@suhijo]

I just see Marty Solos as very non-linear solos, everybody does solos over scales but Marty has a sense of melody out of standards that amaze me. Same with POland but he is more lika straight-jazz player.

When i saw this concert for the first time on a CD player. I thought its impossible for a band to sound so tight and so clean. And i thought Dave mustaine was an absolute god. Not much has deterred me from that thought since then

[@bassman494]

Years ago I worked for a cartage company and delivered the "Shark Cage" drum hardware to Nick's house in The Valley (Los Angeles) for it's final resting place after years of Megadeth storage. This was after Nick was out of the band for some time. I told him I was a HUGE FAN, and that him and Marty were the BEST THING that ever happened to the band. He couldn't have been more gracious. He gave me a his solo CD, "Life After Deth," signed it and said, "Thanks for being a fan!" His mom also showed up and I got to meet her as well. That was one of the best days of work in my life!

[@jaimexd1269]

Lo lograste?

[@thecommenter9267]

Most people don't know this but one of the key factors that makes Marty's sound unique is his strange right hand. The flexed curvature is basically a modified form of the rare Gypsy Jazz style picking, which was invented to create a louder, more aggressive pick attack. He leverages a massive downward pickslant and uses circular thumb picking to get around the string change issue (for example when the pick is below the string and he needs to move to the string above). You can't reach as much consistent speed output with Gypsy style picking as you can with traditional picking but you get MUCH more power. Think of it like the difference between an AK47 and a metronome. AK47 shoots extra fast and clean in short bursts but then soon gets out of control if you keep shooting without rest, but the sound is dynamic and powerful while a metronome maintains consistent high speed, but the sound is rather weak and mechanical.
