Sublime - Santeria
De_El:
You know what? The solo in "Beat It" is pretty rad. I would count myself as a fan.
David_Dovey:
The solo in Beat It is rubbish. It bears no relationship whatsoever to what is happening with the rest of the music, and even the individual phrases sound disconnected from each other. Eddie Van Halen has played some fine solos in his time, but that is not one of them.
Spluff:
I agree. The 'Beat It' solo is 99% wank, with virtually non existent phrasing.
De_El:
And I think to myself, "Really? Huh. Let's listen to that to check."
Are there versions of that song without the solo?
Cus that was kinda shit. My memory is faulty? But what I really do like is the guitar tone for the good bit and it is possible I created some idea of a solo that sounded like that.
Man now that I remember it properly that is really disappointing. It could have been so much better if the solo had made any sense.
