The reason why everyone still asks about the solo is because it touches something deep in your soul. The fact that Scotti took the time to make a video showing note for note how to play it says a lot about his soul. Thanks Scotti.

Even as a drummer, I remember his and Dave's solos were so melodic, rather than just blasting through scales at warp speed. They wrote musical pieces for the song, and therein lies the importance and significance of true song writing. These guys did a superb job of doing that, and having musicians remembering them 30 yrs later, is a testament to that fact. Thanks for the great music Mr. Hill. You're a world class musician.👍

I've been a Skid Row fan since the beginning, messed around with the guitar when I was a kid but never was really serious, I always wanted to learn this solo since the first time I heard it! Now, 32 years later, I'm doing that very thing! To play it right with all the little nuances and bar work, it's dang tough, Scotti is an amazing guitar player and makes it look just so easy! Just like he talks about those damn strings ringing out, he's a master at muting! And for me, if you can't get those bar dumps and correct inflections as he does on the album and the exact same way he does in this video, you're not doing the music justice in my book!

@@graeme1744 Thank you! You know I understand musicians mixing it up and not wanting to step on someone's toes by playing material note for note, but when you have a classic solo, like the one here, played any other way just ruins it for me! I hear folks covering different solos that play the notes, and play the notes well, but if you don't have that feel, it just ain't the same to me! It'd be like listening to Hotel California and someone just butchering the solos, you just can't do it! You gotta be true to Joe and Don!! You know growing up when I did, we listened to music front to back top to bottom, and I'm glad we did, because it made us listen, and with listening, you learn and music grows on us! These kids nowadays don't listen and they can't hardly communicate because of it! Hell, when we threw a record on, or a tape in, we were committed! Man, I used to keep cassettes in for months on end in the vehicle listening over and over, I'm glad I did too, cause it surely helps me learn the songs because they are etched into my brain! Thanks for the reply, my friend, it's nice to see cool people on here for a change! Take care, and stay safe!

You and Snake are criminally under rated as players but even more as a team! Songwriting, rifts and over all kick ass Rock n roll! I met you all in the early 90’s, even met Doc! Bach actually pulled me up on stage after I fell crowd surfing and security was trying to drag me out! All in Vegas. You went into Monkey Business while I was on stage and when the cowbell kicked in I jumped into the crowd! It was epic! I still have a huge Skid Row collection! You guys will always be my favorites!

Hey Scotti, just wanted to express my thanks for you and the rest of the guys creating I Remember You. That song means so much to me. Takes me back to the best times in my childhood. 30+ years later and it still stirs up emotions in me. Probably heard it a thousand times but I never get tired of it. Thanks again for the music.

That harmonic at the end is so powerful and it is simply perfect. I've listened this solo thousands of times 😍

Dude, this is one of my all time favorite solos. It's not just the notes, it's the feel. That melody, feel, and monster tone makes it stand on it's own. It's one of those solos that if you played it without any accompanying music, everybody would know exactly what i was. Really great video. Thank you.

Huge fan from Australia. Thanks for this post mate. Really hope to see more vids mate. Love hearing the back stories.

Hey Scotti. Good to see you're doing well. You actually taught me this solo in person back around the end of July in 2000 when you guys played my venue in Rome, GA. This should give you a laugh from the past too....my show was the first with Phil V and you guys came to Rome a day or two early to rehearse with Phil. Your manager called me a few days before to ask me to line up a studio for this rehearsal. I had heard some local band guys always talking about their"Studio" so I assumed it was legit and set it up for you guys to use. When we got out there (in the middle of nowhere) it turned out to be a damn barn! I apologize again about that but props to you guys for rolling with it. Still to this day, that was my favorite show I ever booked at the venue and you guys killed it! Thanks again.

I went on some trip in high school and listened to this solo about 35 times in row on my walkman. It's so good as is the whole song. I never imagined 30 whatever years ago i would someday see something like this. Thanks for the song and video!

Thanks for doing this. One of the classic guitar solos of all time. Getting a personal lesson is off the charts cool. Seeing how to do it. If only I had the tone in my fingers. And oh, the classic guitar, the legend. VERY cool. Thanks again for taking the time to do this for us. Pretty special.

I remember learning this solo out of guitar for the practicing musician back in the early 90's way before KZread. I use to love sitting on my bed with my Kramer, also with a floyd rose tremelo, and a new guitar tab magazine learning new songs. God I miss those days.
