Steve Rothery Guitar Solos Pt.1

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Mr. Rothery is so unique in his approach and sound. Every note is pure joy. A person cannot make the sounds of heaven without love in their heart. Music that brings a tear to the eye and flight to the soul. The sounds of life and passion. Thanks for the beautiful music! It helped me through cancer recovery twice. Love and respect, Bill

[@larsmaresca]

[@MiCultoAlRock]

So much people talk about David Gilmour, but not many do it about Steve Rothery. With only one note he can touch your heart.

[@tomschmidt4355]

This fate he shares with Andy Latimer. Not to talk about Piotr Grudzinski, who many people even didn't know at least.

[@helvernunes3572]

David gilmour is fantastic

[@NoiseHunter-ux9vm]

4 me Steve is better

[@jazzyonno]

I feel they have a very similar approach - both of them are story tellers through their fingers. Both of them construct their solo's as a story to tell, complete with prologue, main story line, leading up to a massive conclusion and finally redemption. Also both are giving the solo its place but it is still in service of the song, not the reason for the song. There are very few who can do that, for me Steve and David are standing high and proud.

What an ambient experience. A man who can play fast, but chooses to play slow. And can choose to play on any guitar, but chooses a Squier. He should be everyone's hero :)

[@shawnstarks1743]

Yeah man, I had to press pause because I wasn't sure that was a Squire. However, that's just not any Squire. That's a Japanese made one of the early 80's. Those are hard to get cause if the quality. Ironically, another famous prog guitarist plays Squire, the CHEAP ones! anyone can get from Guitar Center Mike Rutherford of Genesis.

[@FERNANDOAUGUSTO-fv1ck]

Agree, he is as good as david Gilmore

[@wolflair3329]

I disagree. I think with an audience and fan base that stretches across the globe he's very much appreciated. He may not get the accolades he should but Marillion and prog in general is a niche market and goes largely unrecognised I think. There is something very special about Marillion and for sure Rothery is the bee's knees. I use the term loosely, but his style is simple, never over technical, his sound flows and you move with it.
