I went down a rabbit hole with this one. Have you checked out Chris Shiflett's podcast Shred With Shifty? The Foo Fighters guitarist chats with other guitar greats and breaks down some iconic solos.
In the new episode, he talks with Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson and they breakdown the solo for "Limelight"!
This is a so great to watch. playing the song is so second nature for Alex. It's hard for him to break it down slowly. And Chris is great analyzing it with music theory. I love this episode and now have to go back and watch others!
By the way, Foo Fighters are playing the Harley Davidson Homecoming Festival in Milwaukee this weekend ;)
Enjoy the video!
