Queensrÿche: The Mission (Cover)

[@joesal361]

Mindcrime is by far my favorite album of all time. I mean that literally. Watching all these new covers your playing is as enjoyable as the first time I heard it. Thank you for that.

[@powerslave88]

+Joe Sal Thanks Joe, I'm glad it brings back those memories! \m/

[@williamchiusano3185]

Can Someone knowledgeable Please define The Lead Guitarist Style ..Not necessary on Tone .. But I find it to be very different than others ..(blues based ) The Chord Structures are inversions and cool Arpeggiated Embellishments as Well as Double Stop Octave rythms .. Any MODE input ?? Something else I can wrap my head around ... ?? I'm working a few different Tunes By Queensryche ...Just taking a Physical Break and Brain training /ear training helps keep me focused ... Thanks in Advance for any input Be Relentless

[@sirborges]

I've been listening to it a lot during these times... The lyrics are chilling man!

[@ApriliaRacer14]

Yeah, had the CD playing in my car for 20 yrs. Album is a masterpiece.

[@JeremyBransford]

Oh no you didn’t! Rage for Order is the best and 20 years before any of the things their songs about even existed 😳 Fight me 🤓

[@Metalguitarpete]

Great job! One of my favourite QR songs. Obviously Dream Theater have never heard this track 😂😂😂😂😂

[@CaribSurfKing1]

This album came out when I was learning guitar. I called it the DGB strings album. I had to quickly learn that rock was more than basic power chords. Great video

[@rezolution6272]

Fantastic cover, one thing I think that stood out to me the most is your timing and it's spot on! Love Degarmo Queensryche wish we could have got more before he left.

[@billyreynolds4749]

WOW!!! Absolutely stunning guitar playing!! Alex...to be honest...your playing is on a whole new level! Bottom line...Alex, your playing isn't just "covering" the song...IT IS THE SONG!

[@Marlina66]

A million thumbs up. That was fantastic!

[@powerslave88]

+Marlina66 Thank you Marlina!

[@mikelawless7426]

[@carsandhealthtoddrosenzwei2661]

Sweet! Nice job! Always love the Queensryche chords arrangements and unique tones. Truly one of the BEST guitar duos.... EVER!!!! #WILTON #DEGARMO #QUEENSRYCHE

[@geoffgurney88]

Awesome job

[@jessechavez69]

Awesome Job playing there bro! I saw this concert in Dallas, Tx 1990. They played the whole album in order then went into the Empire album @ that time. BEST concert ever to this day!

[@Maggie679]

You're amazing Alex!!

[@eyeguyeyeguy1]

Awesome. Love queensryche played in the deer and snowflake sweater, rocks!

[@powerslave88]

eyeguyeyeguy1 Haha thanks man! It was Christmas time after all!

[@TRUELIKEtheRIVER]

I honestly like this more than the original remaster, the guitar is much more vivid in this.

[@federicovellere9867]

I watched every video. Masterfully done is all I can come up with. Queensryche is my favorite band and you did these songs justice. Looking forward perhaps to a future collaboration with my friend Jiny.

[@garthrobinson5479]

Awesome guitar work of the best masterpiece ever written.

[@kmanick107]

Awesome!!! such a great song and you played it perfectly!!!!

[@evilmerguez]

WOW! you're awesome Alex, your ear is really good as your cover sounds great. Thanks for your clean and perfect videos, they really help me and my cover-band. There's probably no chance as i live in France, but i'd like to share a coffee or a beer with you some day, speak about guitars, Queensrÿche... :) Cheers.

[@powerslave88]

Thank you! It'd've been nice to use an appropriate mic, but I tried to get the best out of what I have - glad its worked out ok :)

[@JackPecker911]

Sounds just like the original :)

[@powerslave88]

+JackPecker911 Thanks for the massive compliment mate!

[@Stein1982]

Did you think there was anything wrong with your earlier recording(s)? Fantastic as usual. When the new Queensrÿche isn't showing any love to this song it's good of you to do it :) One of my absolute favourites of theirs.

[@powerslave88]

+Johan Sporre Yeah, some of them are a bit hit and miss accuracy wise and the sound/visual quality isn't all that - but I've had fun doing them all! This is a great song, and I'm so glad you think I did it justice! Cheers for the support!

Well tidy mate

[@Snake_Bite_666]

First, you rock. I love your presentation and yes, even the sweater. What amp and settings can I use to get that sweet, sweet guitar sound? I have a few different tube amps (Bugera and Blackstar) but do all my recording through guitar rig.

[@stephendonovan4043]

I'm trying this out now, but I"m really still a beginner guitarist. The fast parts in the solo are killing me. Well the first one anyway. I haven't even made it to the 2nd quick part at the end. I'm definitely loving this series of videos from Mindcrime. How would you rate the difficulty of this song vs. the others?

[@andreas.502]

How Can I get the Backing Track????? Helpp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
