Thanks dude.

As Clapton wanted his solo on "Weeps" to sound like Harrison, Harrison wanted this solo to sound like Clapton, thus I'm saying it's Harrison. If you listen to "Helter Skelter" &"Badge" - recorded just a few weeks apart - you'll hear that either Clapton played on "Helter Skelter" or Harrison is the culprit on "Badge". There is in particular 1 lick that is duplicated in both songs that's a giveaway. Harrison is dead & Clapton doesn't need to or care to elaborate...so the debate will rage.

Nice work! This is one solo I have wanted to learn in the last 40 years, but it was a song we never played. The same goes for the solo by Martin Barre on Aqualung. That is another very lyrical, smooth, rich in harmonics solo that I have loved for 40 years now. I heard these songs as a child and they never left my mind. I find myself playing the songs in my mind when I need some music. The brain radio. I learned a lot of songs that way. Thanks, you saved me some time in my old age. Cheers! :-)

@zut212 that's the blues: major + minor together!!

The guitar he used on the recording was a Gibson ES 335... the famous one.

According to all of the literature I've read on the subject and from interviews of Harrison and Clapton, Eric "lays out" on guitar until the middle of the song. He plays the very Beatlesesque sounding guitar and then launches into the solo. George plays rhythm and adds licks through out. He lays down a very quick and nasty riff at the end of the second verse, prior to Clapton's entrance into the song.

Is that pentatonic or what?? What's the root of the solo?

Spot on, real good

@avajo99 I agree, there's no doubt it's Clapton, Harrisson co-wrote the song, I'd guess he wrote the second part, where the solo is on, but that's Clapton all the way!! I didn't know he owned a Black Beauty Les Paul, that's interesting, take care!!

avajo99

it is definitely Clapton on the solo...no way Harrison could pull that off like that...he's great in his own way, but that touch, tone and phrasing can only be Clapton...that is a certainty...and by the tone of this clip, my opinion is that Clapton probably played it with his black beauty '50s 3-pickup Les Paul that he had at that time...the tone of this clip is right on...great job!

Great playing!

@zut212 it's in the key of D and I'm using the standard tuning. It really goes to D major and minor pentatonics, like the Blues does a lot. If you listen to the guitar players that are influenced by the blues, you'll find that a lot, like Jimmy Page, Clapton, and so forth. Try doing that over a Blues progression, use major and minor pentatonic, ok? And for those who are in doubt, Eric Clapton did the solo, over a George Harrison progression, and both wrote the song together. Have fun!!!!
