Yes, these passionate music lovers are our Unmet Friends, thanks for that..

This solo is just insane. Not cliche at all and so smooth and fits the song so well

As a soloist for 60 years it is paramount that you work at complimenting the melody and song. In rare circumstances you are tasked with providing a section of guitar virtuosity, but mostly your job is to continue the journey in the song for the audience. I enjoy the craft and the challenges presented when asked to do that.

I agree with Tooker: the solo guitarist's job is to blow the damn melody away

Sometimes that is a soloist’s task; most times, not. Depends on what the composer or producer prefers. George Harrison is the best example of complementing the song. There are many others. Wankery can be both a blessing and a curse, and the question is always this: Is it me that’s most important or the music itself?

You have created the unique sound, which is very warm, sweet and not boring the ears! Now it is becoming very rare when you could hear something unique...

I played the Hopin' non stop when I first heard it and have been excited for another solo from you. This scratches that itch so well. I absolutely love the synth like octave slides and the almost vocal like parts.

Man, that is a jam. It’s impossible not to Bob my head, tap my foot, and pat my hand on the chair. The solo absolute completes the song. I added it to my Apple library. Give me and old school vibe with a new school twist, great combo. I definitely heard some Satrianiesque tones which I love. Bluesy, yet hopeful. And the lyrics made me feel like I would’ve wrote them. Awesome man.

So crafty! Love it! Making a guitar solo work for a song is so much more difficult than one would think. Not to just throw a bunch of shredding at the song and to actually hear the song. It’s always a challenge! Thanks for sharing. Very inspiring

Gosh, what a beautiful song and a creative solo that fits it perfectly. The solo takes you up to the summit of the mountain and then a smooth gentle descent back down. Well done!

absolutely loved your solo in that song!! it sounds and feels so fresh

Went and listened to the whole track! Superb match of sound and great licks, as an integral to the song solo. Excellent job Paul!

Truly beautiful and inspiring. The texture achieved with the combination of the playing itself, the multitracking, and the judicious use of effects in that solo is simply breathtaking.

Watched this no less than 5 times and it gives me goose bumps every time. Bravo good sir, Bravo 👏

Beautiful!, excellent work Paul!

Dude, years after years of watching your videos I’m starting to feel deep inside me that you’re one (if not THE one) of the most inspiring guitarist I’ve ever listened. You’re so talented and your guitar playing is always serving the music and sound, not just about being technical and impressively fast. Even though I think your style is probably most impressive than a technical beast machine. Thank you for being so inspiring! Greetings from France 🇫🇷🤘🏼

I was on the fence until that harmonic bend at the end. That really made it 👌

Your sense of feeling is such an amazing thing! Really feeling the vibes of that fabulous solo

I feel like the competitive, creative challenge of writing or learning a solo is unparalleled when learning the language of music. Countless lessons and tutorials have taught me technique but learning solos taught me feel.

I feel like that’s an also a main reason as to why there aren’t any solos in mainstream music nowadays. That, and it “isn’t cool” anymore, plus, artist think they have to fit a mold of 3.5 minute songs so that they have radio playability; and I think it’s really sucked the joy out of a lot of music. A side note as well, (and my personal opinion here), everything is starting to be created with a computer, making it hard to get the idea for a solo, because there isn’t someone in the studio who can, then the thought of a solo doesn’t cross the artist’s mind, for the aforementioned reasons.

Wow. This is so good. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up to give a standing ovation after the sweeping part. Very well done Paul. Your musicality is so inspiring.

That's a stunning wee solo that fits beautifully. Well written... and a great tip of the hat to the journey you've been on Paul.

Paul, I so enjoy watching and listening to your creativity. You are truly a gifted musician...keep on putting great music and content out!

He Paul! thanks so much for the efforts of yourself and your musical compatriots in the composition of your Spotify catalogue. I discovered the catalogue after watching this video, and since then it has provided me hours of relaxing ambience to my studies.

Thank you Paul that you are with us. Keep rocking. Cheers mate 🎸🎸🎸🎸

That was brilliant!! Your guitar solo brought more life to that great song!

That was brilliant…love your videos! You’ve really inspired to me to branch out of my comfort zone and start exploring sides of the guitar that I’ve always been intimidated to even try! I’ve come so far in the last year, more than I thought possible! Thank you so much!

Absolutely amazing! Great work Paul!

You never cease to amaze. Such beautiful work. I added it to my Apple Music library, as well as Cumulus and Sugar Coated. The guitar solo work on Sugar is a bit more old-school but truly effective and actually raised the hair on my arms when I first heard it. That’s an A+ for me, LOL. I admire not only your skill, but your true musicianship. Everything else can be learned but THAT, in my humble opinion, is a gift.

What an amazing guitar solo that was! Perfectly fitting into the track and you made a superb video about it! I'm so impressed Paul!

What a lovely feel to that solo..brilliantly explained as always. Great job!!

Simply beautiful, and nicely explained. Cheers!

Absolutely incredible dude!!! Love your videos and have now added your Spotify songs on my play list! So impressed, as always!

Hi Paul, this is an AMAZING solo. I enjoyed listening to it over and over again, and over and over ... I'm not sure, but I spotted a Chris Buck style lick in that solo... the bending with the sliding... I love it... This song definetely needed a solo. I hope you bring more work like that! Keep up the good work!

An awesome solo Paul and fantastic approach to creating it and using production to truly enhance it. Thanks for breaking it down for us!

Well and nicely done, Paul! Thank you for sharing!

Perfect! Fit so well with the song which is so soothing. Makes me feeling I'm floating in the room.And this last note, you just want to hang with it forever...

You're always inspiring man! Cheers! Great chord movement. Combined with the dual/stereo delay, it was delightful to listen to

I love this song. Great work paul! That solo is killer too. Fits so well.

Really beautiful! Nice work Paul!

That sounded amazing. What beautiful playing, and creativity!

Wow!!! I’m out of words do describe how beautiful and pleasant that solo sound. It’s everything; the tone and effects selection (sound of the guitar), the notes, the techniques, the feel and connection to the song… Love it!!!! Great job man. I would love lo hear you playing one of my amps and guitars.😁

Paul that solo is amazing and fits beautifully in that space, and most definitely some elegant sweeping lix!!! Great stuff!!! Great grovin tune!!!

The creativity and skill on this solo is amazing. It is unlike any of the typical solos. Blown away!

Every time I watch your videos, I learn a little something new. Thank you, Paul.

You have outdone yourself and given another proof of what a brilliant of a guitar player you actually are. I'm completely blown away. Amazing technique and knowledge used exactly in the right place, you just hit the best fitting notes the song needs and yet created an extravagant little solo in a way I never heard it. Definitely gonna take a listen to your new single!

Superb tone and playing. Superb video editing!

Thank you for beeing such an inspiration to creating music. That was truly awesome!👊😃

I do love the way you broke down the solo especially how you made the octave parts much more interesting. Lots of tasty techniques! Made me pick up my guitar and practice....

Man, what a creative guitarist! As a bass player I really appreciate your thought process and how you used a blend of different techniques (that at least to me aren't so commonly used together) without being too extravagant about it!

To the casual listener it might seem understated but to those who understand the technicality it couldn't be more over the top. So So Nice!

I am once again amazed by you. Your music really gives me a feeling I’ve never felt before.

I can't stop listening to this song it's so good! And your solo is a perfect! 👌

Oh wow!!! I was just thinking about you two days ago! My dream has come true!!! I am absorbing as much as possible from your educational videos. I do not play guitar, but I have something like a guitar and listening to music, your videos have given me a much more appreciation and education of what I m hearing. THANK YOU!!! ❤❤❤🌸🤟

i was exploring new music in spotify and I went to yours and parsa's profile and found this song 3 hours ago and LOVED IT ! you guys really should make more music I love that you are working with a persian boy too! love from iran❤

SPECTACULAR!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 So tastey! You're a world-class 'Craftsman' Paul, giving true purpose for each note. To say 'Well done Paul' is an extreme understatement. Your videos are truly inspirational 💛💚💙

Very beautiful playing Paul.

Paul - incredible job, perfect fit and technically top of the chart. You did an amazing solo.

The solo just touches my soul...it's soo good Paul!...love it! I repeated that section over 10 times now.

Really beautiful! Cheers Dave

beautifully written and flawlessly performed, would love to try it out myself. this here kinda shows guitar solo is like a backbone to the song and it is eternal it can never die even in hundreds of years into the future.

This solo, and the song, is so good! I’ve listened to it dozens of times

Beautifully refreshing, love the vibe.

Beautiful solo. Very tasteful. Great job Paul

Killer work man, sounds too good and fits perfectly on the vibe of the song.

Can’t say enough about how great this entire video really is. Paul, you have that “it” factor, both as a guitarist and as a host on KZread. You have it going on. Hope to hear you in person some day - coming to Florida anytime soon?

Such amazing hands. Outstanding.

Stunning and the sweeping works to perfection

YES YES YES! Holy cow this song is on repeat. I wish the solo would make a comeback in this style in modern music! Such intentionality and selflessly considers the song and message as a whole. I love it!

Wow. 👏 I could listen to this forever. Out of words. Legend 🙇‍♂

Wow, that sounds so smooth!

Zwaaar onder de indruk. Het liedje zelf, jouw plan van aanpak, de toelichting van wat je doet en hoe je het interessant maakt (octaves)! Hele unieke solo die ik al heel vaak geluisterd heb de afgelopen 24uur. Legen......... dary ❤️ !!

Beautiful fit. Fantastic work .

Perfectly complimentary to the song all while highliting an extremely talented player...what more could you ask for. Very modern sounding, yet a subtle nod to the greats of yesteryear. Great stuff Paul!

Nice solo and perfect video man 👏👏👏👏

This was absolutely amazing! Such a gorgeous guitar solo 😮

I love it too... the guitar is so beautiful and modern, that means fresh, like the song! Chapeau!

Beautiful song and respectful melodic solo. Perfect delivery and tones.

Nice job Paul! In the past it never occurred to me to double a solo, but the way you used it was quite effective, I just might try something like it in the future.

Your solo actually fit very well into the context of the song ! 😎🎸🎶

Spectacular! Tasteful, thoughtful, meaningful .. all the good things :)
