Ok, I have only been playing for about 7 months but i am a really fast learner except for on this. Ok the coolest guitar solo i have ever heard is the end solo to "No more tears" by ozzy's band and rhandy rhoads. I have the tab down at the bottom but god its sooo hard to make it sound like him. Please maybe some advice i want to learn this solo more then anything. ITS SOO HARD. Thanks guys. Guitar Solo

Sing Me A Song Your a Singer, Do me a wrong, your a bringer of evil. - Dio
I've moved your post to a more appropriate forum (the Lessons forum is restricted to discussions of lessons on Guitarnoise).
Are you comfortable with bending strings? The tab indicates a lot of bending.
Well we all shine on--like the moon and the stars and the sun.
-- John Lennon
Ive got that album. yup. cool song and solo.
he is tuned to E flat. perhaps that makes a difference.

Nice effort on the tab, but it didn't come out quite right on my computer.
Do you have the PowerTab Editor? If not, download that (free). They have an excellent tab of this song there.
I would slow the tempo down and just practice along with it over and over.
There really is no shortcut to learning a solo like this. You just have to dig in and practice it until you get it.
Most of that solo is from your D minor pentatonic scale 1st and 2nd positions (10thfret & 12thfret). The fast part at the end moves into the 3rd, 4th, and 5th positions (1st and 2nd strings only). So practice these scales.
As Musenfreund said, there are many bends in this song. Use your ring finger for these bends with the middle finger assisting. You have to raise the pitch of these notes one whole step.
If you know something better than Rock and Roll, I'd like to hear it - Jerry Lee Lewis
Just an FYI...Randy Rhoads died before this song album came out. I believe the guitarist was Zack Wylde for this album...
yep. that's Zak on the album.
