Guitar break identification - Volume II (UPDATED first post)

area · Post by **area** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 1:22 pm

You will have my eternal gratitude if any of you help me identify these guitar breaks. I need to know which song and which band/artist plays these guitar breaks; I haven't got anywhere in identifying them, and I'm running out of time.

The file containing the five breaks can be found [gone]

Thanks in advance.

Volume 2

Similar to before, but introductions to songs. I believe they're both songs by the Eagles; I have all the others, but annoyingly can't get these two.

One
two

Thanks very much to everyone who helped me before!

It's not, Layla is a much faster song.

Have to concur with |darc| on #2 although I've only heard the song a few times; #3 is Joe Walsh - Life's Been Good

I'm confirming |Darc|'s 1, 2, and 5. I dont recognize 3 and 4

only for the first few minutes, it changes tempo completely in the second half...

Maybe I'm wrong, when I get back I'll download the mp3 and try it out, but it didn't match any part of the 30 seconds Amazon provides and I don't remember a part that slow from the version they play on the radio.

well it sounds a bit like it, but im not sure it is after a second listen

""CLICK ME for the part in question

Err... I thought we were debating 4, I didn't realize you said #2. #2 is definately Gimme Shelter, it sounds exactly the same as Amazon's Gimme Shelter stream.

That and #2 is definitely Gimme Shelter, even the Derek and the Dominoes version of 'Layla' (which is much faster than the Unplugged version) doesn't sound remotely like that.

And I'm going to take a stab at number 4 at being "The Thrill is Gone". Not sure, but it's definitely a blues riff.

AFTER: I listened to it, and yes, the 4th break is the ending to "The Thrill is Gone" by B.B. King.

Damn, I'm good. I was 5 for 5

On the original song, there is a slow part that sounds like the Beverly Hills 90210 theme. O_o

Just a bump to get it to the top of the forums after I updated the first post.
