This is my cover to the solo of "Alive", a classic Pearl Jam song.

"Alive" was this band's first single, and appeared on the band's debut album, Ten (1991).

Although the album's follow-up singles would be more successful, "Alive" was nevertheless important cuz it brought the attention to the band.

This song grew on me since I listened to it for the 1st time.

The solo shocked me too, it was just awesome.

Its a technically easy tune, but as my friend Dave says: "Sometimes it's the simplest songs that feel the best".

Virtual Band cover of this song... coming soon.

Keep tuned! :)

Thanks for watching!

As usual, I used my Zoom G2.1u effects pedal, and in case youre interested, these are the settings for the patch I made for this cover:

Note: I used a Cry Baby connected between the guitar and the zoom pedal.

Turned the wah ON and used it during the solo.

Sounds amazing. What pedals/amp are you using?

Any tips about how you do those slides like at 0:56? Are they random or specific notes or strings you're targeting? I think it adds a lot to the solo. Are you using a wah pedal? Fantastic job by the way

Top job well done. One of the few covers I've seen where the player remembers to change to the neck pickup for the 2nd bar of the solo and back to the bridge for the 3rd.

Not only was that a perfect cover but, your frethand style is exciting like the greats (Hendrix, SRV, Rory Gallagher, and of course, Mccready is highly under appreciated). Excellent Job
