  • 11 entries deserves more than a top 3, how about a top 5 or 6?

    I agree, which is why I said I'd post the top half (i.e the top five). A fantastic response this month, so it deserves more than three being listed

    Some really great solos made it very hard to choose a top 3 but I'll go with

    5 points @Modellista loved the approach  melody and scale choice
    3 points @Bellycaster again for melody and approach
    1 point @poopot as I'm a sucker for a nice Tele tone and liked the twin guitar approach

    Enjoyed all of these, a great effort by everyone.

    5 points @poopot - lots going on here, nice and funky and I like the tone
    3 points @flying_pie - really digging the chugga-chugga bit at the middle and some very nice phrasing
    1 point @clarke_111 - certainly a left-field entry, not sure if deliberate - but that's some brilliantly unhinged playing that could be lifted from a Captain Beefheart record!

    Loads of entries. Nice to have almost too much choice.

    5 points @markv Love that wah sound and the understatedness (if that's a word)
    3 points @Modellista : Exotic reggae and inventive. A bit high in relation to the backing track for my taste, but I like the solo.
    1 point @fastonebaz : Brazenly reinvented the track. I like the madness of it. In fact the beginning melody brought to mind Madness.

    It's not a competition.

  • Lots of variation of tones and styles here. Surprisingly for me, I've gone with some of the more "out there" choices.

    5 Points @Modellista Brilliant approach, quite captivating. Egyptian Reggae you could say.

    3 Points @clarke_111 This was radical and I'm sure it was all deliberate as it all resolved quite naturally. One Robert Fripp would be proud of.

    1 Point @markv More traditional approach and I liked the tone and phrasing very much.

    Some other great ones in there too, but we can only pick 3, eh!
