Nowhere near 15 minutes, but still fun. More of a test in tone and recording techniques than skill.

Ravel said that played at the correct tempo, "Bolero" would be exactly 15 minutes.

I usually get pretty bored during a solo. It's fun to play them, I'll admit, but every time I hear a long guitar solo it reminds me of Spinal Tap when he plays his guitar with a violin.
I love that Steve Vai has lightning fingers, but I can't sit and listen to him play for too long.

Haha!
I was thinking of you and Jeff when I posted it. I stand by what I said and won't make any judgement calls between your versions. I HAVE seen/heard Carlos play this live, and it was f*cking awesome!Posted: Fri Sep 20, 2013 2:40 pmjimmydanger wrote:Don't even start on "Europa" Mike lol.
