I found a better backing track with vocals so I gave it another go. I'm repeating myself with this one but if I don't play guitar it will sit in the corner gathering dust.
Absolutely Fantastic, I grew up with this song and many many more, please do not let your guitar gather dust. You are an amazing talented person and an inspiration to the all the aspiring young and old guitar players. Thank you for sharing this.
Wish I could hear someone nail the album version solo. But, I doubt If Alex ever was able to again. I never heard this version. I enjoyed it! I'm always happy to see an upload from Alex Lifesons brother Blobblobb22.
That's because their is no version except this which proves this has to be Alex Lifeson Lol. Rush never released this version. This is like a demo version. How would this guy even have a special version if wasn't truly Alex Lifeson.
Excellent. Simply EXCELLENT! Great job on the recording, placing your guitar sound clearly showing it is all you. (others muddle their playing with the original lead playing). Your lead just blows me away. Clean, straightforward, without embellishment. Don't let it sit in the corner gathering dust. Honor us with your gifted playing.
My favorite RUSH tune then Red Barchetta. I seen them twice in concert back in the 1980s. I just bought a LesPaul (Epi) to learn some of my old favorites thanks for the fabulous playing..
I'm in a band that plays a lot of Rush and your videos have been very helpful. I don't use a trem bar so it's been great seeing how you play some of these solos. Alex has always been a big trem guy but it's a fun challenge playing these songs without. Thank you.
Just beautiful, I can play the verse and chorus sections fairly faithfully but it's just been one of those that I couldn't get close to on the solo.your articulation is just wonderful So thank you for the inspiration , as with Neil's tragic passing I am trying to pay my own little homage.
Guy's, he is playing to the isolated studio Rush track Lol. No one has this but Rush. Does anyone besides me notice the isolated track he is playing. That is his guitar. Again, I am 100% convinced this is Alex Lifeson.
I can’t stand people like you that have all the natural talent to play the guitar. If only the matrix were true, I could sit back and get plugged in and then learn not kung fu, but the guitar. I watch this video and I wanted to stand up and applaud. Great job I envy you.
Guy's, this is Alex Lifeson Lol!! His solos are dead on even without wah and effects Lol. The isolated tracks and demo version I have never even heard it.
I am a fan of the RUSH since I was 14 years old. Here in Spain almost nobody knew them, and I have traveled around Europe for their concerts. But you, and thanks, give us an intimacy in the covers of taste and perfection. Thanks, again.
Awesome! Probably my favorite song from Rush and of all time. Thank you so much for this. I’m just curious what pedals you may be using? I really like this tone
I’ve been watching you for a while now, I think over a year, and you’ve inspired me to start doing covers as well. How do you learn new Rush songs? Do you find tabs, or go by ear?
For this one there are some really good fan videos from Rush concerts that were very helpful. I learn by ear and sometimes use tabs to speed up learning chords and stuff I get a bit stuck on.
@@Blobblob22 I also go by ear. Any musical intrument i pick up! & ive played the paino since i was little. I dont know how to read musical notes or tabs.
Someone please tell me the best way to learn to do covers? Back in the day it was rewinding a CD 90 million times. I'm scarred from that. A solo like this is no small feat. I can actually play it, but I don't know the process of learning this. Any thoughts appreciated.

Life wouldn't be worth without playing gtr, especially Rush songs! Thanks for another great job!
thanks :)
"Life" is totally worth it thanks to Alex!
Always look forward to your uploads. Alex has said this song is difficult to play live. Great job as usual :).
thanks :)

Awesome as always. Want to learn some Rush songs. Blobblob22 is the man. So many thanks for your vids over the years.
Great job 👍
Thanks 👍

This guy is the best guitar player online.. God I wish I could play like this
I used to play RUSH songs from the 70's and some songs with the help of a chorus ensemble - You my friend take the cake and nailed it note for note.
thanks :)
My favorite RUSH tune then Red Barchetta. I seen them twice in concert back in the 1980s. I just bought a LesPaul (Epi) to learn some of my old favorites thanks for the fabulous playing..
Thanks :)
Great job, sounded excellent!
thanks for that :)
Great job, that solo part was clearly overdubbed on the original. Impressive!
I've been following you pretty much from the start of TH-cam - you're a legend and keep the dust off that guitar!
thanks a lot :)
This is the best chorus ever put to disc
Love learning Rush songs from your videos.
I'm in a band that plays a lot of Rush and your videos have been very helpful. I don't use a trem bar so it's been great seeing how you play some of these solos. Alex has always been a big trem guy but it's a fun challenge playing these songs without. Thank you.
Thanks, I'm glad the videos help :)
Great song! Your playing always sounds fresh and new to me!
thanks :)
Well done. This is the first video of yours I've watched... I'll be watching more, thanks.

There’s such thing as backing tracks my dude 😂 everyone on TH-cam can access it not just rush

You Sir, have just performed pure witchcraft on the that guitar , superb finger work , well done !!
thanks ;)
Nice job! Really impressive.
Best Rush Cover place on TH-cam. I am learning actually this song. Any Tips about the rhythm structure?
Thanks, I can't think of any tips except slowing the video down might help you to learn it

You win. Perfect!

Nice.
NICE
Great performance... again, as usual! I'd say this'd only get better if you had the tabs to download.
thanks :)
Awesome! Probably my favorite song from Rush and of all time. Thank you so much for this. I’m just curious what pedals you may be using? I really like this tone
Thanks, I used a Boss Overdrive Pedal and Boss Distortion Pedal
Cool thanks for response. Your covers are awesome 👍
It could be Alex. It's close. It's close enough to be Alex!

@@Blobblob22 . figured u were a musical prodigy like me..
I try my best to learn by ear, don't always get right, can't read music either :)
Blobblob22 is Alex guitar playing central.
finally the unharmonic and unwhammy version!!lol
YASS!!
from the looks of your hands and the way you play i have to ask the question are you really alex and teaching how to play rush ?
Thanks, I'm just an average Joe trying my best to cover Rush Songs :)
what kind of amp do you use in all of your videos? im dying to know! your sound is incredible!
I plug into a Boss Micro BR and get the sounds from that. I don't use an amp
Well Done Well Played Another one recorded at LE STUDIO
LE STUDIO!
One of the originals!
Someone please tell me the best way to learn to do covers? Back in the day it was rewinding a CD 90 million times. I'm scarred from that. A solo like this is no small feat. I can actually play it, but I don't know the process of learning this. Any thoughts appreciated.
Look up the tabs or watch videos
C'mon Rob play more...please!
What kind of guitar is that? How much did it cost, if you’d be willing to tell us?
I mean, I know it’s a Gibson something, right?
It's a 'Tokai Love Rock' Guitar, it cost 400 Euros
Lifeson top 3 guitarists easy
Nice! Good skills 👌Think you’ll like my guitar videos actually!
3:05 thank me later
