      Edit: After looking at your playlists we seem to be musical soul mates, Dance with The Dead, Sixto Sounds remixes, Enya....won't be weird about it though
      Ever checked out those classic SSH remixes of game music? That's what the Fighting of the Spirit track made me think of, it's synth guitar but they rock imo

    Dude you can't beat yourself up for not getting Marty solos to sound right. He has such a weird picking style and is incredibly expressive for metal. Your vibrato sounded sooo close, really impressed. The sweep timing too, I dunno if it's just me, but when I hear Marty do it, it seems like he's kind of behind the beat. It always seems like he hangs on just a split second then releases on bends, sweeps, etc. But yah, your playing doesn't sound like generic Instagram shred. You have a great tone and feel, much respect.

    This solo encompasses so much technicality, being able to play it correctly at full speed like felt like graduating guitar-academy. Arpeggios, sweep picking, string skipping, alternate picking, pinch harmonics, pullons, pullofs, speed, accuracy and I'm probably forgetting stuff. Took me 20 years and I'm still not consistent in nailing it!

I don't tend to play much of metal anymore I moved more toward the Van Halen stage of my playing. I like to free style doodle a lot for practicing, I also use a metronome when practicing scales and solos. I do aspire to be like you when you were 16, cause you kicked ass and still do.

    Awesome video. The recent recording is obviously incredibly impressive, but I love the teenager one because you can feel the drama of your younger self trying to nail an incredibly difficult piece, and hear the little mistakes and instances of string noise, compared to the new recording, where you can definitely hear that you’ve been playing this solo for years and have a totally valid interpretation in your own right, the same way Kiko and Chris Broderick do. Sort of a Gary Moore vs Jason Richardson type of thing- both incredibly awesome in their own ways. I’ve been playing a couple years and am approaching your teenage self’s level of abilities, so this was incredibly inspiring to see.

    Memory's a little hazy, but I'm pretty sure I found out about this solo through you, Bradley. From one of your Tornado of Souls mini-series (Thanks btw!). After that, I decided to search for the song and found Kiko Loureiro's playthrough and after finishing said video, I said to myself "I must learn this song!". That was when I started to get into more technical playing, have put many hours on the solo and still trying to learn that part to this day.
    And then on February last year, late into the night, I was several hours in on learning and grinding the solo, I suddenly had a chest pain (either it was caused by fatigue or by my medical condition) and I passed out. My dad went to toilet and saw me on the floor in my room, thankfully I didn't close the door or else my family wouldn't have known I collapsed. Even after that event, I'm still as obsessed as ever when it comes to this solo, albeit, being a little more careful, so I don't collapse again. 😅
    I guess that's one of the stories of my journey with this solo and guitar playing in general. Felt like sharing this story, after seeing your journey with the solo. And again, thanks for introducing me to this great song. 😄

I’ve realized at that age back then you’re trying to learn the song but you don’t focus on the minor details, it’s only when you slowly listen note by note that you start picking up patterns.

    Excellent choice in the subject of this video. I sometimes look at myself and I'm like, why did I take years to perfect certain solos? What's wrong with me when guys like Bradley Hall do it so quickly? Well, there you go. There's nothing wrong with that, it's the same for everyone. I think you may have won an award for most videos on the Tornado solo.

    Fuck yeah!! man, that was sick, thanks for showing us your evolution. this is exactly what i was needing to watch on these days. i've been playing guitar for almost 15y and most of the time i was frustrated(still am) cause i couldn't play some shreds solos like As i am from Dream Theater (still can't) but when you look back and see how far you've come, it greatly minimizes frustration
    Great job bro, keep rocking!!

    I personally feel like all of us guitarists always feel like we aren't able to play "as" good as we like, I feel like SRV or even Steve Vai always wanted more out of their existing songs and or techniques.
    Very well done.
    I think you put my definition of guitar in one segment

    I see what you mean is you finally learned your own version of the solo!
    I like the sweeping part but, in my opinion, it has tried to replace the most iconic part of and iconic solo.

    You were more technically proficient at 16 than I've ever been (age 30 now). Then again I've never been great at sitting down and disciplined practicing 😅
    I still can't precisely nail that fast little pentatonic lick in the Seize the Day solo. I'm much better at everything else in the solo though 🤣

    This tracks with my experience. What you have by the age of 16-17 in terms of ability is 80% of all you'll ever have. It's absolutely frightening how much you can learn as a child with seemingly no effort, and how grueling it is to keep climbing the hill after your mid 20s. Kudos to you and thanks for all the videos!
