Sergio Dorado1st January 2010Very technical and tasty solo. Amazing work!
Alex Lewis1st January 2010dude you need to slow down the parts more so we can see what your playing, I had to pause and rewind the vid like a million times and there is no tab below it either to help out. A better view of the picking hand would be nice but not essential other than that its an awesome solo probably in my top five of all time and you nailed it!

kcoddington7th January 2010Awesome lesson! I think a whole-song lesson would be great for Tornado of Souls as well. The opening is probably one of the greatest rhythm licks of all time.

Hi GMC-ers!
This is a lesson on one of my favorite solos I've ever heard. The solo for "Tornado of souls" by Marty Friedman with the band Megadeth. This song is part of the album "Rust in peace" of 1990.
This solo combines many different techniques like:
What's amazing to me in this solo is the overall melodic direction. Marty is able to achieve using unorthodox playing and not really doing what's expected. I hope you enjoy this lesson, learn it and be able to play it! If you do, record yourself and let us see you! If you have any difficulty with any part, let me know and I'll help you, Rock it! Daniel
