@@beanleyhallsworth how do you stay in tune during unison bends (like the one at bar 12) with a floating trem? looks like a gotoh 510 charvel, do you have a tremol-no installed? cheers
0:54 There is a slight difference in bar 22(first few notes, there is a hammer on and pull off) on the album. Whenever I see a cover of this solo, i'm always looking for it but nobody plays it... Am I crazy ?
You are not crazy and the version on Songsterr (not affiliated or anything; only know about this site because it has decent tabs for Unlucky Morpheus. Amazing band BTW, check out Black Pentagram, Unending Sorceress and The Black Death Mansion Murders for starters) has the missing notes.
It's James' solos in Master of Puppets and Fight Fire With Fire that make me wish he would just take over for Kirk in some spots, he makes some TASTY shit
Thank you Mr beans 🫘 also Kirk would probably love this. I’m a huge Metallica fan and been playing guitar for a year and I’m almost done learning the whole song!. Love your videos Bradley! ❤
0:26 The triplet (19-20-19) is wrong. These frets are representing the notes F# G F#, while in the actual recording it's always been E G E, which in the same hand position are played on the frets 17-20-17.
@lakabaka you need to ropemaxx with that, >le heckin metallifruitcake brings in the views Self delete zoomer (I would say more mean things but youtube doesn't allow me to say such things)
I can't speak for Metallica, but I would imagine this was a part that got "felt out," rather than intentionally being written in 21/32. Gonna assume there wasn't a whole lot of ProToolery going on when MoP was recorded.
Some transcriptions have it written as 5/8 for simplicity. Some person on youtube measured the exact time and got 21/32, but nobody thinks Lars thought of it that way
A few years ago some youtuber (can't remember who) broke down that single bar since it trips a lot of people up. In a lot of tab books it's written as a bar of 5/8, but if you actually play it as 5/8 it doesn't really fit what the recording. If I remember correctly, the youtuber slowed the track down to count everything out more precisely and came up with 21/32 as the best way to express what Metallica was doing in that bar. Metallica definitely weren't trying to write in 21/32. They just came up with a riff that had a certain feel, liked it, and threw it in MoP. Technically, if you want to tab/notate the song correctly, you need that 21/32 measure.
I like the folks that have said “well Kirk did this, you missed that”… Really? This was definitely pieced together from dozens of takes, happy accidents, and who knows. It wasn’t written out like a piano song. Dude just grabbed it, shook it and if squealed it was a bonus.
I can't believe this kind of content is so easily available nowadays!! My old ass would've loved this back in the day! Kids these days have it soooo easy!!😏 🫢 😅😅😅
