The whole thing? Hm, maybe just solo would be enough. I'll see what I can do.

Also my favorite smile.gif . There are guys who developed technique more than him, but he's still my favorite. I just can't get enough of listening to Led Zeppelin.

Then, a question: How do you compose your solos?

Thanks for the video biggrin.gif

Jimmy Page, of course smile.gif
I guess you've already told me this, but I forgot..

He's quite amazing though smile.gif

Favourite song is hard to pick,impossible for me at least.

I've been asked the same question by intemperateControl on PM. This was my reply:

"I don't really know how I can explain "music" to you. That's a wide term and we all have some individual kind of creativity. My influences used to be famous rock bands from 70's and 80's. The key in my compositional skills is following and modernizing what my influences used to play. I was listening music non-stop and just tried hard to become and sound like some of my greatest bands. I don't listen to music now a days as I am very busy but all that rock vibe remained in my heart and my music is just the story how I feel about it. For me the real artist is the one who can make you feel the way he felt when he got idea for his product. If he cried when he was composing and if he makes you cry when you're listening then he did a great job. That can be anything from painting, writing books, composing music... I have never made a song based on music theory and some other common rules in music. It was always about how I felt and what sounded good to me. When I mix my techniques and make my arrangements the way I like that reflects what I feel, not what I learned at school. So my advice is that you listen to bands you want to become like and follow their way. Eventualy you will find that there is yourself in all what you have composed, not just a copy. Every musician sounds different because we all feel things different. You can hear a lot of Yngwie stuff in my music but there is also Emir which is better than just a copy. It all takes time but I don't know a person who didn't make it if he really seriously went for it."

Great response, Emir. I'm the guy who's been struggling with those speedy runs on your Rock Ballad. You told me to make sure I was using your exact fingering. I was a bad student - I resisted for a while, and stalled. But, alas, the past couple of weeks I decided to take your advice and work on those fingerings, and I'm suddenly making progress. Just wanted you to know and to thank you. Once I nail it I will post a vid. My goal is to have it before 2010. Thanks again - you're an inspiration!

Awesome thread! I've got one:
If you were a tree, which tree would you be?

And,

How did you get up and forth in the music business? How did you get that "first toe" over the boundries? tongue.gif

Don't worry man, you'll be the first to know. It will take me a while as I don't get to play as much as I'd like, but I won't quit "Rock Ballad" - it's too cool!

A tree on which ROCK stuff grows smile.gif

My friend Mike Terrana (best world's metal drummer) who played on my album recommended me to Lion Music and I got record deal. Of course the music had to have some decent quality and the rest just goes with the flow smile.gif
