Members slvrsrpnt Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Satch Boogy or Summer Song? hard to decide between the two Gary Moore - End of the World (it was awesome hearing this song on the radio in the 80's)Eric Johnson - Cliffs of Dover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cratz2 Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Eric Johnson - Cliffs of DoverDEFINITELY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slvrsrpnt Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 I always thought of Parisienne Walkways as his signature song, though it's not terribly shreddy. DEFINITELY! yeah, I was going for the shreddy part - Gary has a super variety of tunes and styles to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sylvesterlowery Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 I dunno abaout "FTLOG" for Vai. I always hear "The Audience Is Listening" in my head when I hear his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dparr Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Would Allan Holdsworth's sig tune be "Devil Take the Hindmost"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aliensporebomb Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Would Allan Holdsworth's sig tune be "Devil Take the Hindmost"? I'd say "Road Games" because during the intro before the solo the singer would come out and mute the strings down at the end by the headstock in a theatrical way and then Allan would come out ripping at the end and the singer would walk offstage.

Members Toto99 Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Yngwie Malmsteen's signature song should have been Far Beyond The Sun. It's more catchy than Black Star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JesperT Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 I personally think that Nuno Bettencourt's signature song should be "He-man Woman Hater" (including the "Flight of the Wounded Bumblebee"-intro) or "Get the Funk Out", since those songs really showcase both his great riffing but also his tapping prowess. Regarding Satch, I always think of "Flying in a Blue Dream" when I think of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Floortom Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 For Satch I would say Surfing with the Alien would be his signature song. For Dimeola I would say Mediterranean Sundance. I would add Robert Fripp and 21st Century Schizoid Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
