Thank You Mark. Although I have composed all parts for each instrument enough for 3 full CD. I have TREMENDOUS RESPECT for MARK. I learn from Mark EVERY TIME I watch ANY of his KZbin video uploads and will continue to watch and Learn as much from Mark as I can and for as long as I can. My advise to ANYBODY is to do the SAME. Thank You MARK

[@samhillband]

Thanks so much Donald!

[@mikelopez9817]

Mark, definitely, you have amazing skills! Enjoyed listening, thanks for sharing.

[@Chord_The_Seeker]

One of my favorite songs from the 80s. As always, you nailed it!

[@samhillband]

Thank you!!

[@TomEGuitar]

Absolutely fantastic, Many greetings from Bavaria, Germany

[@samhillband]

Thanks so much Tom!!!!

[@fatherof3kidz]

Oh yeah, rather see the goofy grin than the boney knee lol! Hope you're doing well Mark

[@samhillband]

Lol!!

[@tonyhugill7704]

One of the first songs I rocked out to on my iPod Shuffle that was shaped like a stick of gum. Your fidelity to audio detail is impeccable, Sir.

[@samhillband]

Thanks for the kind words!!

[@ARyan-sr4nn]

I saw them in Nashville with Y & T and Twisted Sister in like 1984. Awesome show and you nailed this like always. I remember trying to figure out the tapping section over and over.

[@samhillband]

Must have been a great show.

[@sierraridgereaper]

Y&T kicked/kicks ass, love some Dave Meneketti...

[@sierraridgereaper]

@@samhillband would love to see ya do some Y&T. You are always spot on so it would be awesome..

[@ChrisEdwardsRestoration]

excellent as always, lets see some more 3 guys from Canada collaboration. you all did such an awesome job on the Rush songs!!! i rewatch them all the time!!!

[@samhillband]

Thanks Chris, more coming for sure!

[@brian8076]

solo is harder than I thought

[@samhillband]

Ya, not easy at all :)

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy harder than i though,even the intro solo is tricky

[@gregsalitis1770]

Those 2 bars before the tapping sequence are inhumane. Kudos to anyone who can play it; I do my one stupid thing there.

[@XMguy]

I can see why the video edit. Epic solo man! Great cover.

[@fuffoon]

It's short, melodic and beautiful and takes some good technique.

[@glyphs3]

Stunning play sir. Absolutely stunning. I can only imagine this being performed on stage accurately. Very technical movements and as always, you crushed it !!

[@mikenunyaz9605]

Don't put yourself down brother that is a very hard solo to do ! Much respect to u.You did awesome!!

[@kerryward6896]

Hi mark.. First time viewer here.. One of my all time favs from my childhood... Friggen awesome sir.. Please keep the great work !!!

[@samhillband]

Thanks for watching and commenting, Kerry!!

[@garycoraluzzi1166]

You are an incredibly gifted musician. Thank you!

[@DannyBrooks1]

Great to see a new video from you! Awesome as always. I love the 80’s😊😎🤘

[@samhillband]

Thanks Danny!!

[@hwmbo727]

Love the high-res video, Mark. Your seemingly effortless playing and the sun reflecting off your LP gives us a warm, happy feeling!

[@samhillband]

Hehe, thanks!!!!

[@cat793c2008]

Agreed. Let’s see the expression! Great tone and touch Mark. Really well done

[@samhillband]

hehe thanks!

[@JandNandJ]

Great song and awesome cover!! Stellar playing as always. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@samhillband]

Thank you for watching!!!

[@reecenamina]

Hell yeah, it’s an all skate, everybody skate. Reminds me of the skating rink when I was a kid in the 80’s. Awesome playing btw!!

[@MorGuitarz]

Nailed it, brother. Sounds killer. What an iconic solo on that song. I haven't heard it in countless years and can hum/sing the melody of it.

[@samhillband]

Thanks so much!!

[@paulquigley6473]

one that always plays in your brain love it.

[@LeonTodd]

This is the definition of THICC tone

[@samhillband]

Thanks Leon, much appreciated!!

[@JeremyDeWallMusic]

I'm impressed you were able to play the tapping part of the solo so well on a Les Paul. I too have a Les Paul and it's my #1 and my favorite guitar, but the toggle switch is right perfectly in the damn way to screw me up for the tapping part. It keeps hitting me square in the palm on my hand for that part lol. I have to play it on my other guitar that doesn't have a toggle there. Great playing!

[@JazzStrat781]

New subscriber here, fantastic tone and playing! Really glad your video came up in my feed, best to you man!!

[@samhillband]

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing, very much appreciated!!

[@jeff7807]

Mark, I have been watching your videos for years now and I just want to take a second to say you are one of the best players I have ever seen. Great job.

[@samhillband]

You are far too kind Jeff, thank you so much!!

[@themetalghost]

Heck yea, rock on Mark! Need to learn this bad boy myself.. Uncle Ben does indeed make it look easy..

[@gojoe36]

Classic jam from the great 80's...jammed that many a time....nicely done...as always

[@stratplayr6997]

Damn, why do you always have to make everything look so easy??!! Another excellent job, my friend - keep 'em coming!

[@Terrysoddy]

Excellent job, love that song. That song has to be in the top 5 best rock and roll songs ever.

[@samhillband]

Thanks!! Very fun song!

[@Terrysoddy]

Looks like a very hard solo. Lol

[@samhillband]

@@Terrysoddy It sure is :)

Knocked it out of the park! Tone is spot on...

Thanks Rex!!!

[@thesadsquatch]

Great cover Mark! That's a big wall of cabs in the back, wow.

[@samhillband]

They look so rock and roll but to be honest I never use them. AxeFx to FOH and In ears :)

[@Gunny_101st]

Absent backing guitar was a non-issue. You freaking NAILED this song.

[@davidbrasefield9151]

Crushed it as always Mark!

[@gaboonv1per]

Hi Mark, great to hear from you again..this is one of my favorites from the 80's, and yes..best rendition ever. Keep up the great work buddy.

[@paolocereseto1818]

Dear Mark you make always your guitar sings... i really like and appreciate, you play also the hardest songs like are easy... thank you for your videos!.. Paolo

[@samhillband]

Thanks so much Paolo!!

[@tid6904]

I absolutely loved the intro so clean and also the tone was awesome good job man I’ll subscribe

[@scottabeneguitar]

Well Done Mark. Always loved that solo!

[@samhillband]

Thanks so much Scott!

[@wesleypollard3058]

I have always loved this song and I consider this to be the greatest pop metal solo ever. I hope that, one day, I will be able to it with this level of skill. VERY nicely done, in fact, perfectly done!

[@samhillband]

Ben Eller has a great lesson on this, thanks !!

[@shiningforceband]

Good Job Mark. Awesome guitar work buddy.

[@rragy1848]

This will never be forgotten !! Amazing job dude!

[@VGMrawk]

That's the coolest les Paul I've ever seen. Great tone, nice playing. Cool.

[@samhillband]

Thanks!! I must agree on the Les Paul comment, I just really dig this one!!

[@elgonm289]

Cheers Mark, love it from a great time in my life mate, thanks for posting it.

[@samhillband]

Thank you Smitty!

[@MarkPritchardGuitar]

Good to see you back Mark! Amazing as always mate! Love your Axcess too.

[@samhillband]

Thanks Mark, that Axcess is such a fine axe!!

[@noelg5069]

You absolutely NAILED it, notes, efx, tone, it's all there. Nice job. I've been learning it and Uncle Ben's tutorial covers the solo, but I cannot find his intro. I can copy the techniques, but I was just wondering if you could email just the notes of the 2 main riffs in that intro? It would be much appreciated.

[@Sixinthefield]

Smokin good cover of a smokin good song, esp the solo. Speaking of the solo, Ben Eller has a video covering just the solo at-speed, as well as a great in-depth breakdown of the entire solo (including all of the sections played much slower).

[@martinwilliams9098]

Again fantastic Mark great Job, never heard this song before I really like it well done!

[@samhillband]

Thanks Martin! Autograph is such an awesome band!

[@martinwilliams9098]

[@uncleandyguitarherbst1157]

Fantastic cover. Talk about a song with a bushel basket of incredibly creative guitar hooks.

[@fatherof3kidz]

Always long overdue but worth the wait. Still miss facial expressions though. Lovin the tone. I need to work on my sound to get at least close. From one Mark to another, keep rockin my friend! 🤘😎👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@samhillband]

Thanks Mark!! Someday soon my facial escapades will rear their very ugly head again lol

[@bobsmith1965]

I love some new Mark Day guitar work. Hope things are well with you and of course your playing is always so smooth it makes me wish I would have practiced more before I got so damn old. Keep it up, you rock.

It's really tough. Ben Eller has an excellent in depth lesson on this solo.

Great tone and playing as always Mark! Curious, tone pretty fat, did you double track it or was it meaty enough for a single track for the rhythm portions? Sounds like some pitch detune with delay & reverb? Nice job! 👍

[@samhillband]

Single tracked, yes pitch detune, delay and reverb :)
