Top 10 Solos of Glenn Tipton

[@mmrseed]

I can't for the life of me understand why he isn't ranked as one of the greatest ever. He has speed but also wonderful phrasing and great tone.

[@oogleboogle1052]

mmrseed Among other musician's, he's very highly rated! :D

[@teddyvanhalen814]

I wondered the same thing , but I think he’s always been seen as part of a duo. One of the greatest guitar duos ever, but a team nonetheless. But as a guitarist, I realize that Glenn on his own is in an elite class of guitarists.

He should be in every "best guitarrist ever" conversation. His solos are magnificent but his rhythm and songwriting skills are also otherworldly. Sadly and criminally underrated.

[@jerseyforhawks]

Agreed. His only partner on the throne of greatness would be none other than Glen Campbell. Only 'Glens' allowed.

KK's crap solos brought him down. Unless you buy the album it's tough to recognize that it's always the same guy Glenn doing the great solo in the song.

[@obscurebandfan]

The thing about Tipton is he started as just a damn good British Bluesman in the vain of Rory Gallagher or Peter Green but as Priest's music got heavier he took a few cues from the neo-classical guys like blackmore and developed his own unique style. He has the speed chops, but he retains the melodicism and tone control of the british blues guys, hence his amazing vibrato and bending techniques.

I had the honor of spending 2 whole days with Glenn in Memphis and even took him to the Park Theater to see Raiders of the Lost Ark. Before the movie started he was telling me about being in Ky. a few days before and hitting golf balls at the driving range and he said behind him was an employee on break playing his acoustic guitar and ''trying'' to play a Priest song. but not doing such a good job. Glenn said when he finished his bucket of balls he walked over and asked the guy if he could see his guitar and then Glenn broke into the song and he said the guy almost fell off the bench and Glenn hooked him up with tickets to the show-such a nice guy and he even called me to thank me for showing him around Memphis and said they were about to get on the bus and leave- After we hung up I was in such a heavenly place from 2 days with my idol I then played ''Heading out to the Highway in his honor while I sat and just absorbed everything that had taken place-Never forget it as long as I live Edit: By the way he was just so cool and the first night when I took him out I let him drive my 81 Z-28 and I asked what music he wanted to hear and he said '' How about something easy'' No prob I played WRVR 104 which was our easy listening station. But in his chats with me he talked a lot about his dog named Charlie and his daughter. When asked what did the ring on his pinky finger mean he said ''It was my ex-wife's wedding ban and I just wear it'' Great guy and I would love to see him again

Tipton is the best metal guitarist, the best blues guitarist (he started as a blues guitarist, his influence was Rory, Jimi, Jimmy), the best RockNRoll guitarist, the best neoclassical guitarist (sometimes his guitar sounds like a violin...). Tipton is the best ELECTRIC GUITAR of them all, every other rock star knows that, ask them. Plus, nobody have the same longevity, Tipton seems to improve yeras after years, he can play every sub-Rock/Blues genres and styles. He is in his own league, no other electric guitarist can be compared to Tipton. About the style, the technics, the skill: his vibrato is PERFECT, unmatchable. His bends are meaningful, his PHRASING is beyond any other guitarist, is another level, he is always MELODIC, and so FAST, no other electric guitarist can be so MELODIC and FAST at same time: TIpton is a BLUES electric guitarist first, and so his TONE is always top notch, his sound is just perfect, FAT, ELECTRIC, RAW, POWERFUL and WARM at same time. About his solos, well: he made the BEST solos of metal, about the rythmic, well, he BUILDS the riff with such mastery so they are always different, tasteful, Tipton is the most creative metal guitarist of all time, usually metal guitarist are very boring, most of them focuse on SPEED and less on MELODY and DYNAMICS. Tipton is the BEST electric guitarist of them all, period. And I am a dire hard fan of classic ’70 blues/hard rock and ’60 Rock (i am NOT a metalhead), my favourite are Hendrix, Page and Vaughan but, Glenn is a GOD, he is the real deal, the FULL PACKAGE.
