Zakk Wylde - Live Solo '89

Guitar Solo of a young Zakk Wylde.

[@dkpitt3912]

One of the great parts is how much Ozzy liked it. He looked very pleased.

[@dejanostojic5496]

Stupid

[@jamescreswell3274]

I love how he put that Les Paul down VERY gently at the end of the solo!

[@iandevlin_Ibanez]

noticed that too. Here's a man who knows the risk posed by sharp shocks to Les Paul headstocks.

[@ironsyde8315]

After brutally abusing those strings. 😆. Zakk rules

[@makemoneyrelax]

zakk is the only guitarist who is so passionate that instead of spitting on some bystander he spits on himself

True!

those are the days when pentatonic licks, played again and again will sound like a rockstar!

Yeah but few can play them with that intensity and speed

I’ve been lucky enough to meet Zakk twice and he is my No. 1 Hero. I’m in my own band and I have a homemade 18 string guitar which fits on my wheelchair and I play it with one hand and my head and I FUCKING LET RIP HA HA, I hope one day I can have a epic jam with Zakk Wylde 😈🤘🤘😈

[@benngullie9110]

Best solo I have ever seen... the accuracy is just unbelievable

Such an amazingly fast pentatonic player. Just blazing runs. Fuck! First time seeing this and that was just a freaking incredible solo. Holy shit is he fast. Not to mention he rarely looks at the guitar when he shreds. Unbelievable!

A combination of so many great guitar techniques. With some emotion thrown in the mix. I know he later plays with more of the latter (and in my opinion it's more important). But what a great solo.

I wasn’t too sure what to think when I heard painters coming back but when I heard ZW was gonna do it it I was like okay man sounds like a plan

[@HankNarrowUrethra]

I like this. Granted, I don't listen to a solo like this as music, I'm just blown away by the technical proficiency/consistency. I get that it's not for everyone but he's great at what he does. I'll listen to Dave Gilmour if I want a soulful solo that does more with a single note than most do with the whole fretboard but I think some people need to appreciate that there is a place for this kind of stuff. Too much snobbery and elitism everywhere regarding shredding, like it's not even impressive. Watching these freestyle footballers juggle with a ball in extraordinary ways is impressive as fuck. Fair enough, they're not 'real players' but that doesn't take away from how talented they are. Same with this: just appreciate it for what it is: a young guy (only 22 at this time!) who had most of the crowd in the palm of his hand for 10 minutes because of the dedication he put in to his craft. Surely the work ethic alone deserves some respect?

[@sevencostanza3931]

Zakk is technically superior to David & watching him is interesting but listening to his solos after short time becomes Chinese Water torture in my ear....complete opposite of David who's solos's I can listen to on loop mode

[@charlieswitzer9931]

sometime after Pride & Glory he must've suffered a serious right arm injury. his picking style changed completely. he went from the wrist of doom to the elbow of mud.

[@MICKSHRED]

I noticed that, he had a great wrist picking technique back then.

[@albinullanger7862]

He wore out maybe? At least he can preform his early repertoar with his changed picking style. So you mean his curved crumbeled banana picking from under is the new adaptation?

[@majav15mg]

I suspect it’s after years of playing with the guitar hanging low like that. I play standing up like him because not only does it look cool as hell but it’s also surprisingly ergonomic. But it does seem to slightly change the way you angle your wrist.

[@RaceFanDana]

I was telling people about the gobbing thing, which is why I looked up this video. I saw Ozzy with Zakk, Dec 30th 1988 in Long Beach Ca. (Lita Ford and Anthrax opened) and during the solo section he stood out on the end of the "runway" and "raced" the revolving spot lights overhead and the audience clapping... and then started to gob huge loogies straight up into the air and catching them on his own chest on the way down. People have told me I was hallucinating, never happened etc.

[@electrawire9039]

Several of the more melodic parts of this are straight outta’ Frank Marino’s bag of tricks, and it’s more than just influence. If ZW didn’t acknowledge FM as one of the greats (which he does, in the spirit of great artists think alike, it’s O.K. to borrow with attribution, and standing on the shoulders of, etc.) it could be considered outright appropriation. All’s good, it’s Rock N Roll.
