I think it was Somebody To Love which he had trouble with. The GHIII version is great, just a shame that it is overdubbed over the true FM tribute version :-(

The very first solo I learnt to play aswell!

Does anyone know which soundgarden song brian played on? I haven't heard it, but apparently it was a kick ass solo.
Freddie: "Yes, we'll have a great big cock fly over the crowd!" Roadies: "Yeah! Great Idea!" Freddie: "And it will fly into a great big mouth with a moustache!"

Last night I was listening to the Scandal 12" remix for the first time in years, and not only is there a bit of extra guitar which I never remembered hearing before, but in that extra bit Bri does an incredible run that I would definitely rank in the top 3, if not the top, of the technically most difficult things he's done.

Check it out - it was around the 5 minute mark I think.

It's a beauty isn't it Fenderek?

There's something quite un-Brian-like about it, and it's the closest he's come to just shredding on the guitar.

It's such a little treat to have that one quality bit of guitar hidden away on that shitty 12" version.

Exactly.

And I see you resurrected Fenderek somewhat. I had to call you that rather than The Grim Reaper, because obviously in my head I consicously have to think 'Fenderek' when I read your new name.

I've always thought that Brian's technically most accomplished playing was on The Miracle.

Does anyone know if he spent a lot of time practicing prior to/during the recording of that album?

I always thought that his playing on that album was more obvious, because of production- the guitars are really sharp and straight in the ears, whereas on ,let's say, AKOM, even when he was playing some great licks, they were somehow burried in the whole mix... And the album is I think 'rockier', heavier- so is his playing... Even the worse songs on "Miracle", like "Party" or "Khashoggi's Ship" or "Hang On In There" had great guitars, better than anything since... 1980 maybe?

Is there any way I could download this somewhere, assuming it's not an official release? I haven't found it anywhere, official or not.

Yeah, I agree. I dunno if he practiced any more, but you can tell he put in long hours to make his playing sound incredible on that record.

12&quot; single &quot;Scandal&quot; (or CD)- that's where it is. Where to download- unfortunatelly don't know... the whole mix is absolutelly terrible (like most of extended ones...), but the extra solo is really cool
