Mike Moreno – How To Think Ahead in a Solo

This Mike Moreno Guitar Solo has some really fantastic lines and demonstrates some great melodic ideas, especially in the last example. But when I was preparing the video and looking at the examples I realized that there is also something else going on. It is not only about the interesting arpeggio choices or beautiful long phrases. Mike Moreno is also clearly always thinking ahead when he is playing and doing some very interesting cross the barline things in this solo.

There are a few different videos of Mike playing this song on YT in different settings, and it is probably a favourite of his. Which I can’t blame him for it is a great song with some really interesting changes and that is also why it is wonderful to see such a great solo on the progression!
