Great! Thanks for posting this.

Wow!

I could play air guitar to that when I was about 14

Are all Keith's electric parts on BB played through Vox amps? Have we sussed out the other tunes?

Most likely.

Hearing artifacts (his hands on the fretboard, moving quite naturally) proves the stuff wasn't recorded at half-speed and sped up (I think I read that theory in another thread yesterday).

Most definitely not half speed, but a step or so lower is still a possibility.

Wish I could hear the isolated solos on this one. They're even more ear splitting than Keith's, and, oh yeah, Lou's record came out a year earlier.

^ Recorded in September 1967, released January 1968.

Keith's lead sound is more in line with Macca's on Sgt Peppers.

Part of the reason for that effect was the volume at which the Velvets recorded that album:

“We were intent on recording this album live, because we were so good live at this point,” said John Cale in his autobiography, ‘What’s Welsh For Zen.’ “To keep that animalism there, we insisted on playing at the volume we played on stage.”

It looks like there is now an APP where you can isolate instrumental parts from multi-track recordings: [www.guitar.com]

He came up with some great parts but he sure played it unsteadily. Between notes, he made a lot of noise.

HM, I suppose those solo parts are from Wii Guitar Hero5 Isolated Trax, right?

I don't know, that or maybe from 5.1 Neptunes thingie.

Dear mr Fantasy

The guitar heard on the demos for SFTD is similar, the electric slow jam and the studio version.

Brilliant! My all time favorite solo...on Electric guitar...

Would be fun listen to some of Townshends solos also....

Not really.

Timing, that's his best attribute! That's way this solo without the other instruments is just some strange guitar solo but when it's played and heard with the rest of the song it's a classic and brilliant.

Yes with regards to the clean electric(standard tuning) on the slow version, kinda with regards to the prsentation of the solo on the finished release.

Fantastic! Did you hear that smooth fast part? Ronnie should have taken that part in a Stones song...

I never noticed the similarity with Led Zeppelin's 'Your Time Is Gonna Come" before!

Mathijs

Yeah there is! Never noticed either.

It's not kinda too surprising as we all know that there's only 12 notes on a guitar, so the combinations are quite limited.

There aren't only 12 notes.

If you count a low C and a high C for example as two notes, yes there are more than 12. But in a way it's the same, it sounds just a bit different.

without which...there'd be no Blues

Where does this come from Phil? Are there any more isolated tracks from beggar's Banquet. I have the Aftermath and Toothless Bearded Hag isolated boots but never heard of this one before.
