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.”
