It&#8217;s always exciting to get your hands on something you can&#8217;t get anywhere else.  So as a measure of thanks to Joel Wanasek for inviting me to do a guest column at InsaneGuitar.com, I offer up a transcription you won&#8217;t find anywhere else on the internet.  It&#8217;s none other than the guitar solo [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Harmonic Choices

The Freight Train solo is based on what we might at this point simply call the Angelo Fingerings.  The most important of these is the classic pentatonic or blues box-position fingering.  Because Freight Train is written in G, we find this fingering at the 15th fret:


G minor Pentatonic / G &#8220;Blues&#8221; (parentheses) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Phrase 1:  Two-String Patterns

A series of two-string patterns combine to create the first of the solo&#8217;s six melodic phrases.  In this case, it&#8217;s a multi-octave display of scalar picking prowess:

After a brief breather, Mike attacks the fretboard with a barrage of repeated notes and another impressive multi-octave scale run:

		<description><![CDATA[Phrase 3:  Sixes

While violinists frequently utilize four-note-per-string fingerings, the greater scale length of the guitar means that three-note-per-string fingerings are most often the rule for shredders.  As a result, many common shred licks measure their length in even multiples of the number 3.  By far the most common of these is the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Phrase 4:  Alien Blues

The fifth phrase is all about the blues &#8212; if we imagine that the blues originated on the bizarro anti-gravity world where Michael developed his extraterrestrial chops.  The meat of the phrase is a lick that adds a particularly alien sound to the proceedings:

		<description><![CDATA[Phrase 5:  Jazzercize

The final scalar phrase of the solo employs a little chromaticism and a little arpeggiated sweeping, the overall effect of which is more jazz-like than metallic:

		<description><![CDATA[Phrase 6:  Sweeping Beauty
Phrase 6 concludes the solo to Nitro&#8217;s Freight Train with a lick that is in every way as preposterous as the band itself.  It&#8217;s one of the fastest examples of arpeggiated sweeping you&#8217;ll likely ever hear in a rock song &#8212; or any song, for that matter.  The lick [...]]]></description>
