Title: great classic rock
Post by: gordiji on January 29, 2011, 08:02:31 PM
this is a great song called overture by john miles.very good singer/songwriter.killer guitar solo and tone.bit of an epic so for the impatient it get's going at 1.15 and the guitar solo at 3.55.
you'll love it andy r if you're still around.

I couldn't get it either but I saw John Miles play live many years ago and he was a great player and wrote some great songs.

it's a shame. the song is there (but not available?).
it's called "overture" and it's the live version. not live 2 or the studio version although they're both still good.
if you google john miles overture live you can listen. like i say the solo at 3.55 is a killer.

He has been one of my favourite performers for 25 years! without doubt one of the finest musicians to come out of the UK! very under rated.

After he had his own band, he was Tina Turner's musical director for a long time
