Hey everybody! Here's the next episode of Soloing Secrets with yet another big one - Neal Schon! I created a Journey Chordplay a few years ago, along with a Three-For-All hitting some of Neal's fiery licks, but this time we're doing a deep-dive into his lead playing, so if you're a Journey/Neal Schon fan - this episode is totally for you!
This lesson tackles a few specific areas within Neal's playing style, which are his trademark overly melodic solos and attention-getting ideas. This includes his work with Journey but these ideas can also be found in plenty of Neal's other work with groups/artists such as Paul Rodgers, Carlos Santana, Jan Hammer, Bad English, Hardline, and various other places you can hear Schon's music and guitar playing.
Aside from hitting moments from classic Journey songs - including melodic sections from anthems such as Just The Same Way, Stone In Love, Who's Crying Now, Majestic, Still They Ride, and Be Good To Yourself - this lesson also tackles a common area hiding in Neal's bag of tricks. It's a concept that I've nicknamed "Modal Pockets" and it was featured in the August 2017 issue of Guitar Player Magazine with my lesson 'Melodic Journey' - a full-fledged tribute to Neal Schon.
Needless to say, if you're a fan of Neal Schon, Journey, classic rock guitar, or maybe a player searching for some legendary secrets to stick into their bag of tricks - this episode is totally for you!
