YouTube Video of the Day: Legends of Dual-Lead Guitar Live
Jerry McCulley | 07.01.2008
The glorious sound of
twin lead guitars
harmonizing on a killer riff or slinky melody has become a distinctive hallmark of rock music, from the pioneering Southern rock of the Allman Brothers Band to the distinctive, arty sounds of Tom Verlaine’s Television and beyond. Here are clips of two all-time dual lead classics, Thin Lizzy’s energetic “The Boys Are Back in Town” and The Allman Brothers Band’s feverish “Whipping Post.”
Thin Lizzy - The Boys Are Back In Town ( Sydney Opera House, 1978 )
The Allman Brothers Band – “Whipping Post” (Fillmore East, 1971)
