Favorite solo

[The Edge Of Forever]

Great solos in Dressed to kill

when someone mentions "solo" and "Michael Romeo" in the same sentence, I immediately think the solo from Egypt. I love it!

yeah, that solo is so cleverly fitted in the song.Just perfect

 

[schenkadere]

Masquerade, Accolade II, and Seven.

 

[Krondor]

It was suppose to be a SX solo! Not any Michael Romeo solo

I went to listen what was all the fuzz about this DOAMS solo and man... It was unbelievable! I have some serious fever now and stuff but OMG! I started sweating like hell when it started... and the use of wah in that solo! It was even better than in Masquerade! Thx to that solo, I think I'm getting better!

PS. What other songs have Michael Romeo made solos to? Not SX of course

 

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

He did a solo on the song E=MC^2, which is on the new Ayreon album.

It might be kinda obvious, but he did a bunch of the solos on Russell's "Atomic Soul"

And some very good one's too.

And some very good one's too.

And some very BLUESY ones too! That's the part that gets me.

Saucey Jack... that one gets me every time. His solo in Gaia is the most Symphony X-like on the album.

And for some reason Gaia is my least favorite song on the album...

i totally agree with you!!! AMAZING SOLOS!

 

[greenaxer]

Right now, my fav's are the solos for Communion and the Oracle, Candlelight Fantasia, Masquerade '98, and The Sacrifice. That one especially!

Dawn of a million souls. Not SX, but it's Romeo nonetheless.

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

I love that bluesy part in the Dawn of a Million Souls solo that sounds nothing like Romeo's style at all.

You mean the part that's all like bweep deedle-oop bweep deedle-oop bweep bweep deedle-oop etc.?

 

[ToastedOveries]

fave solo? no idea man, i like them all, i just like his style. i would say oddessey, just because of the shear amount that he has to reproduce

favourite solo of all time has to be gates of babylon by blackmore

That's the one!

That's the one!

It's now established that we're both dorks for getting this

 

[fidani16]

Of Sins and Shadows is my fav for pure craziness. DOAMS is crazy but I don't like parts of it.

Yeah, Of Sins and Shadows. That's the one! Though almost all others are good too

 

[progmetaldan]

an oft overlooked gem of MJR's would have to be Orion- The Hunter, the solos in that are great!
