Tell u what Chris Zoupa your very inspirational mate I have A disability called Cerebral Palsy & I want to learn to play guitar now I have learnt to play the intro to smoke on the water but that's all I've learnt due to the fact that due to my cerebral palsy my left hand is very stiff with the fingers but every time I watch your videos you just inspire me to keep on trying mate & for that I thank you mate great job well done
MetalHead 92 I've a spinal injury, I still play, if I can do it so can you, keep getting your inspiration and practice, practice, practice. Good luck to you.
Outstanding!! I've pretty much got the rhythm section of this great song done and dusted (took me a few months!), now I want to learn the solo so thank you for the brilliant performance and the lesson/tabs...you're a star!!!
Dude, you're good! Your videos are inspiring, helping me learn true rock guitar after playing for over 4 decades. I tip my proverbial hat in sincere admiration and appreciations! Take care, Bill
Damn awesome. Got to play this solo when my band covers it. I hate learning solos, like to free form but you've made it easy to learn. Not to slow not to fast, not too technical not to simplistic.Thanks a bunch bro!
Man Chris, you are such a great guitarist. The emotional and clean way you play, love it. On top of it a great teacher, too! You are definitely my most favorite lesson channel on YT! (Still learning daily from your excellent video on The Trooper solo!)
Thanks for this lesson Chris! I've loved this solo for years, and finally decided to learn it this weekend. This lesson really broke the parts down in a way that was easy to learn. Thanks mate! :)
Thanks again Chris i'm going to get a bit off the mrs for learning this one as she is the biggest prince fan and was in tears when he passed away. Cheers mate .ROCK ON
Dude i love this solo! Also you are a great instructor! Awesome tutorial, i learned this in 3 days! I'm thinking about going into the talent show at my school and wooing all the lady's 😂! great job, keep it up!
This is awesome. Thanks so much for showing how it works along with the tabs too - super helpful for practice, and not many show you playing with the tabs.
I keep thinking you have gigantic ears! It’s that poster behind you 😂 For example- see 2:32 Anyway- super awesome playing and fantastic, much appreciated tutorial. I may tackle this with your help. 🤘
Thanks for doing this properly, I was coming from another video on this and it was just all over the place, allegedly by a professional guitarist; yours makes much more sense and is better explained (and more accurate). 👌
Hey Chris, I love the way you teach this solo! Super easy to follow and with your help I can now play the solo. It's hard to play along with the live version bc it's slightly out of tune.... which I think is probably on purpose. Thankfully I was able to find a Karaoke version that is almost perfect and I can play along with that without having to tune my guitar out of tune. This is truly an epic song and it will help me entertain friends on Zoom during Covid. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain it for us!
Dude, if you don't mind me asking, how do you know all these guitar solos yourself ? I just can't help it but get amazed, because most of the time, your playing and coaching seem so easy to follow. You're one of the best guitar teacher here in TH-cam for real !...I really appreciate your effort and passion for guitar music and especially with this special song, and all your teaching here as well...Thanks a lot !
Hey thanks a lot ! ❤ now i know play this solo …. You are a very good teacher 😊 i have loved this lesson with you very Special ambiant … The best for you ! Ty ty ty 🤘
"Dat sexy vibrato" made me chuckle. Seriously great lesson Chris. I've been mostly a rhythm player but your lessons have given me the courage to actually start playing some lead lines these days! I know it's been a while, but could you maybe (re)do a lesson on Zakk Wylde's "Farewell Ballad"? I've been doing a lot of shred-based exercises, but the way you teach solos has made me really conscious of my bending and vibrato a lot more -- I've been trying to play that solo piece for a while and Zakk's vibrato technique is a bit tricky to emulate.
He only plays 4 notes in that but put every bit of his soul and showmanship into it. Plays as many notes as fast as you want it doesn't compare to the emotion he shows.
Great rendition. You more loosely followed the recording but it felt more sincere that way and honestly more like what I'd imagine prince might do live. Great!
Ok, good to know. Apart from tabs, there isn´t much of interest in there anymore. Anyway, I´m glad you´re posting your videos here in YT. Cheers from Bogotá, Colombia.
That is just a beautiful tone you got there mate, very well played and thank you for the inspiration. I know it's all in the fingers Do you mind if I ask what you are going through to get that sound please as it's pretty exceptional, reminiscent of Neal Schon in places.
Even a beginner can learn this quite easily. It's pretty much a matter of 'play slow, play correct' although you will make some mistakes, try to keep them down so you're not adding them to muscle memory. Also, time-box your playing over all and your practice over all. And remember, "when you practice anything, you're practicing everything." So feel free to jump around to scales, rhythms, stuff you already know, etc. and keep your guitar out, at the ready so you can pick it up anytime. And don't forget TH-cam's slow-down feature. And lastly, this is not note for note correct, so just have fun, and your ear will lead the way. Good luck!
+Chris Zoupa (Learn That Solo) dont forget abou No Remorse,that opening solo is killer. Actually here's an idea, do a Kill em all solo special. One hour instructional video covering most of Kill.
I’m late to this, and only just now getting into the Prince leads, even though I’ve been a massive fan since seeing the Purple Rain tour live in 1985.... But, in tutorials like this, I think it’s quite important to discuss *the tone* itself-getting it to sound like this is a component of the playing. What effects/amp settings were used?

MetalHead 92 Never give up. you can do it. Straight to the top everyday
MetalHead 92 I've a spinal injury, I still play, if I can do it so can you, keep getting your inspiration and practice, practice, practice. Good luck to you.
Never give up mate ! One riff , one solo and one lick at time . Cheers !
YOU are an inspiration, my friend!

@@Danguardace17 yes they do, they probably all wear capes. Moti Oved nd pgi ginez both wear capes, dont judge
May I say you have perfected the art of moving your head to the feels of the solo
Hell yeah!!!! 🤘
Epic solo! Rock and roll!
One of the BEST solo's that i have found on the internet.. AWESOME very inspiring.

1:14-1:16 the sexiest, most unique lick in this solo, I always loved it in the original too. Nice lesson :)
Very fluid and emotional style,,,,beautiful

Great lesson. Really well laid out. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Brilliant demo - thanks brother!
Great way of teaching it
Terrific playing! Thanks
Thank you so much for the great lesson sir! Liked and subscribed to your channel!!!!
Hey Chris thanks for this, was wondering what fx you are using, I have the boss gt1000 core and i am trying to recreate your tone.
Great tutorial many thanks.
Btw you remind of Phil Lynot.
Really great lesson! Thank you so much, dude!!!
THANK YOU.....WICKED COOL...
Muito bom, BR aqui, aprendendo com seu vídeo, uma das melhores vídeo aulas. Thank you very much!!!
that sounds awesome... I like the prs too!!!!
Great lesson, thanks again.
Great job, great feeling!!!
Chris, thank you very much for this. Easily the best tutorial on here. I must learn how to do that pinch harmonic :-)
Awesome tutorial! Thanks a lot!
Please oh please do Prince’s solo from While my Guitar Gently Weeps!
He only plays 4 notes in that but put every bit of his soul and showmanship into it. Plays as many notes as fast as you want it doesn't compare to the emotion he shows.
Thanks, you're a good teacher!
Great rendition. You more loosely followed the recording but it felt more sincere that way and honestly more like what I'd imagine prince might do live. Great!
Amazing brother!!!!
Thanx Chris, I always wanted to learn that solo.
Haven´t seen your videos in UG lately.
ultimate guitar is full of jerks. i don't write for them anymore
Ok, good to know. Apart from tabs, there isn´t much of interest in there anymore.
Anyway, I´m glad you´re posting your videos here in YT. Cheers from Bogotá, Colombia.
Thanks you Chris
Great teacher Chris!
Which effects did you use on the Guitar?
Thanks so much Chris !
gr8 job - thanks for the lesson
the [guitar pro?] tabs really help too!!!
Excelent! From Argentina.
Does anyone know what combination of pedals he's using?
this is so great - is there a way to see the tab while you're playing? I only see if for a second towards the end of the video?
That is just a beautiful tone you got there mate, very well played and thank you for the inspiration.
I know it's all in the fingers Do you mind if I ask what you are going through to get that sound please as it's pretty exceptional, reminiscent of Neal Schon in places.
3:13 can someone please explain to me what exactly hes doing there? I’m a beginner
It's a 12\ . U can see the tab.
Please please please do the second part of solo (daves part) or Lucretia
This is a very silly question - but how long do you all take to learn a solo like this? If you are intermediate player and beginner level?
Even a beginner can learn this quite easily. It's pretty much a matter of 'play slow, play correct' although you will make some mistakes, try to keep them down so you're not adding them to muscle memory. Also, time-box your playing over all and your practice over all. And remember, "when you practice anything, you're practicing everything." So feel free to jump around to scales, rhythms, stuff you already know, etc. and keep your guitar out, at the ready so you can pick it up anytime. And don't forget TH-cam's slow-down feature. And lastly, this is not note for note correct, so just have fun, and your ear will lead the way. Good luck!
Delicious solo!
you can do a lesson to hit the lights solos?
Yeah, we want that badly
I think I should do that and jump in the fire

only 2,000 views?? this is amazing stuff, sharing this
very well played!!
what effect use in the song? thank
good job, man! very nice!
Hi Chris,
Fantastic vidéo lesson !
have you the links for the tab and the backing track
Many thanks in advance
Niceeee lesson as always Chris :)
who effects is user please ..guitar song different
He's mostly in the Bb Major scale. That's what key the song is in. The G relative minor not so much as the Bb major.
Great lesson!
Do you have a link for the tab?
Email him, that's what I did for a different song
TOP . THANKS MY FRIENDS
I’m late to this, and only just now getting into the Prince leads, even though I’ve been a massive fan since seeing the Purple Rain tour live in 1985.... But, in tutorials like this, I think it’s quite important to discuss *the tone* itself-getting it to sound like this is a component of the playing. What effects/amp settings were used?
chris I still cant play purple rain😭 Im in tune Im doing everything you say but my guitar cant have this sound..why
Music 2017 because U Suck
Music 2017 you need effects
