Especially when I am really familiar with the song (or in VHs case, tried to play many of them). There is an intensity that come through that is lost in the mix.

Plus, it starts with three killer riffs in a row that another band might have turned into three entirely separate songs.<br /><br />The fascinating part for me comes around 0:19, where he hits a harmonic that I always thought was actually David Lee Roth giving one of his yodely whoops. But no, it's the guitar.<br /><br />I also always thought there was more than one guitar track on this song, but that's not true either. I'm not a hard rock or metal guitarist or even that much of a fan of the genre, but Roth-era Van Halen were definitely something special.Derekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06305726604191188040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913752433926766420.post-90818637471536614152010-07-29T09:09:23.955-07:002010-07-29T09:09:23.955-07:00Yes, they probably are.

I could say the same from all the other videos, they're taken from either Guitar Hero or Rock Band Games.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
