Matt Reviere &amp; Jon \u201cHW\u201d Sullivan)","description":"In this episode, Desi Serna is joined by friends and fellow guitarists Matt Reviere and Jon \u201cHW\u201d Sullivan for a lively discussion about one of the most debated solos of the 1980s \u2014 Steve Howe\u2019s guitar solo in \u201cHeat of the Moment\u201d by Asia. The trio breaks down why the solo doesn\u2019t quite hit the mark, exploring its phrasing, tone, and fit within the song. Along the way, they take a deep dive into Steve Howe\u2019s legendary work with Yes, examining how such a brilliant player could deliver something that feels so out of place. Then things get creative \u2014 each guitarist reveals and plays a replacement solo they composed themselves, reimagining what the song could sound like with a stronger melodic statement. It\u2019s equal parts music theory, guitar nerdery, and good humor between three friends who love to analyze and play great guitar music.  \ud83c\udfa7 Listen to Our Solos   Desi: Heat of the Moment Solo \u2013 Desi   Jon \u201cHW\u201d: Heat of the Moment Solo \u2013 HW   Matt: Heat of the Moment Solo \u2013 Matt   \ud83c\udfb5 Get the Backing Track: Asia \u2013 \u201cHeat of the Moment\u201d Guitar Backing Track (Karaoke-Version.com) \ud83c\udf9a\ufe0f Tone Used: Inspired by the 80s \u2013 Kemper Pack by Tone Junkie \ud83c\udfb8 Free Custom Video Course: https:\/\/www.GuitarMusicTheory.com \ud83d\udcd8 Lead Guitar Unlocked: Master Expressive Soloing With the Pentatonic Scale: https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Lead-Guitar-Unlocked-Expressive-Pentatonic\/dp\/B0FY4XH4TP ","author_name":"Guitar Music Theory","author_url":"http:\/\/guitarmusictheory.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39007110\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/87A93A\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/39007110"}
