long guitar solo in the middle

I heard this song on the radio but don't know the name. It sounds like the Scorpions. The beginning and end have fast distorted guitars. The song stands out because the middle of the song is a very lengthy calm classical guitar solo.

Any ideas?

Call the radio station. Tell them the day and time your heard the song. If you're not sure of the time, tell the radio station that you want to know all of the songs played between the hours that you know the song was played.

Radio stations have to keep a log of all songs played so royalties can be paid to the artists.

Yeah I tried that. I looked through every song, but it wasn't on the list. I may have to bug them again.

Scorpions' No One Like You comes to mind:

What about the solo starting at 2:50? :P

Well I don't know any other Scorpions song that could be it, do you remember any lyrics?

The section you mention contains distorted guitar with drums, and is 30 seconds long. In the song I heard, it contained only a classical guitar (no distortion) and went on for several minutes. It sounds like Pink Floyd - Is there anybody out there?

Post a link for the song list. That will give us an idea of the type of music played.

I see one song on the list that I was going to suggest...

Styx - Suite Madame Blue


Dan

Did you hear the song on Saturday June 18th?

If so, about what time?

The radio station must log every song played.



Dan

Yep, that was the day I heard it. I was sure it was during the afternoon I checked every song on that list. It's none of them.

I would suggest getting their playlist for the 17th and 19th incase they made a mistake when logging the song.


Dan

It took many hours of searching, but I found it! It is a song by Triumph called Blinding Light Show.

The solo I like runs from 3:18 to 5:38
