Author Topic: Is Tim\'s Solo in Mooboo\'s (studio) One of the Best of All Time? (Read 9888 times)

I think so. I gave it a good listen today, I mean REALLY listened, as opposed to normally blissing out. This solo goes above and beyond your average several chord solo. He\'s able to peak several times without sounding contrived or "going for the blow job" as Zappa used to call it (or something like that). Most top rated guitar solos are usually a minute tops, but Tim\'s surpasses the standard. Emotion, texture, technical prowess, and a beginning and end. What an epic few minutes. Thanks Tim....

:lol: it\'s funny, I was just thinking the same thing yesterday! I played the album from my iPod and thought about the great production quality on that tune - this seems as close to "live" as possible from a studio track! :awwyeah:

I gave Carolina **** Ecstasy a listen before Mooboo\'s. For those who haven\'t heard it, the solo is very similar (well no **** Tim and Frank share the same DNA). Listening to CHE my jaw always drops because let\'s face it, barely anyone can touch Frank, but sure enough Mooboo\'s gave me the same reaction. So then I thought about other amazing/epic/unbeatable guitar solos, and concluded that Tim\'s solo in Mooboo\'s belongs in the rock history books.

the solo in mooboos,to this day,sends shivers down my spine and covers my body with goosebumps.its the perfect guitar solo.not too long and not too short.pure perfection.that song,to me,is the best piece of music ever written.i mean that 100percent from the heart.that one song has made me laugh in amazement and cry in complete sadness and desperation more than anything i could ever imagine.its funny how a certain song could bring you back to a time of your life,good or bad,but i remember clear as day,the day that me and my ex were packing up our **** and going our own seperate ways,mooboos voodoo was playing in the background and ill never forget how i felt that day..when timmy came in with "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"......forget about it..if i was ever to drive out to i95 and step in front of an 18wheeler,it was that day and it was that song.despite the extremeness of the story,thats what a beautiful song is supposed to do to the listener..
on a sidenote,timmy solo in intension=STUPID

Studio Mooboos is damn good. But a lot of the Mooboos played in the day one upped it.

My favorite Tim solo probably remains 2002-04-20 Gladys Pimp.

Musically, and lyrically, Mooboo\'s moves me in so many ways. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. It\'s beautiful on so many levels. Between the frantic opening and the poetic lyrics, it covers just about every relationship that most of us have been through.

Jordon rocks on this song btw. Let\'s not forget him.
