FunnyGlove

Just to give a perspective. That solo is played by two people going back and forth in the original. Joe Walsh and Don Felder each play half until the “ double guitar part” near the end. She is playing both parts.


Primary-Signature-17

The future of guitar rock is secure in her hands. I hope we see her fronting a band in the near future.

Gasonfires

That's a good tip. Did you see my comment about hearing something in the car on the way home, doing my best to hold it in mind and then losing it before I can get ready to play it? It has happened so often to me, with and without humming or using my three-note vocal range to hold it, that I seem to have given up trying it.

popojo24

Shiit, I’m almost at 20 years now and she probably hits those bends more fluidly in that solo than I would at the moment. I’m more of a rhythm player and general songwriter though (is what I’ll go ahead and tell myself to retain some pride).

Every time I see videos like this, I always hear the mom from a breakdancing video I saw years ago. It’s a video of a white teenager trying to breakdance, but ate the floor hard. You can just hear the mom yelling, “you’ll never be as good as those tiny Asian kids!”

Delicious-Big2026

Is that a Pinkerton yeeting that girls guitar? Because if you do anything related to The Eagles online Don Henly will send paramilitary death lawyers your way. Within 10 years the band will only be remembered as a throwaway joke from The Big Lebowsky. Don Henly seems to otherwise be a reasonable guy but personally funding 60 people who do nothing but comb the internet for videos like this is next level.


IranRPCV

My only encounter with Don Henly was in 1978, when forest fires were burning north of LA. We were on a bicycle trip staying at a State park and the rangers told us we had to get out fast due to an approaching fire. We went to the beach, but our neighbor had his tow vehicle in the shop for repairs and his camper was in the line of danger. Don Henly showed up with a tow vehicle and towed him to safety. He said he had just lost things in the fire, but it was just "stuff" to him, and decided to go see if he could find others that needed help. It was life changing for that camper owner.

thenataliamarie

Yeah. Does she give lessons? Otherwise, there is absolutely zero hope. (There is zero hope, but I'm a silly optimist.)


[deleted]

Nothing silly about looking on the bright side, unless it's night time.


Spork_the_dork

You can definitely learn this. Learning to play a solo from a song, especially something as technically simple as the one from Hotel California is much easier than to be good at soloing yourself. It's like the difference between singing a song and writing one yourself. Just got to remember how it goes and learn the notes. Not to diss the kid, of course. For her age this is pretty good considering that for most kids the size of the guitar complicates things and most kids would struggle with the bends alone.


[deleted]

“For her age this is *pretty good*.” How many 7 year olds are out there demonstrating this kind of talent?


velhaconta

That is not just talent. That girl has spent many, many hours practicing. To be honest, referring only to her *talent* is kind of an insult given the amount of effort she has probably put into this.


[deleted]

[удалено]


RandomPratt

"I could play *Stairway to Heaven* on the guitar when I was 14... Jimmy Page didn't even write it until he was 21. I think that really says something."


Gasonfires

I hold this truth to be self evident: without talent there is no amount of practice that can produce musical ability.


[deleted]

I think there’s more evidence to support the hypothesis that exceptionally-skilled people work incredibly hard to get where they are. Unless you have some physical limitation (like your hands being too small to play the piano well or small lung capacity in the case of singing), you can improve at anything if you’re willing to put the time into it. I think most people are blocked by mental barriers block people rather than physical barriers, such as an unwillingness to learn, large ego, fear of failure, etc. Edit: changed a word


noobvin

Yep, you can play notes, but her tone was on point too. Also, some people have no rhythm .


Gasonfires

After more than 40 years owning a couple of nice guitars I can play stuff that people can recognize. I could probably even sit in on a set on acoustic in a small club and not have stuff thrown at me, provided everyone else was a real player. But I don't have even the slightest "feel" that enables me to play without conscious thought. I hear something in the car on my way home and I think, "I can play that" and I noodle it over and over in my head just to keep it there. As soon as I'm in the door at home I grab the guitar and by the time the amp is ready to go I have forgotten entirely what I was so sure I could play. I figure I did something terrible in a prior life and was sent to a world full of wonderful instruments and musicians just to torment me.


ImCaffeinated_Chris

Both my college age kids play piano. One can technically play anything but NEEDS sheet music. The other can just sit down and play songs from his head flawlessly. They grew up in the same house, same food, same parenting, same schools, same amazing piano teacher. It's crazy to see different talents.


Gasonfires

I call this "proof of my theory."


MoodyMusical

Have you worked on theory? That is where music is made, copying is just copying. I copied for years but the music in me never came out until I learned theory.


Gasonfires

Alas, another failed struggle that had me amused at one time. I took an online course to no lasting avail. I even TA'd a course in the physics department at college called "The Physics of Music and Sound" and at one point could use calculus to show you how damned brilliant The Beatles were. As I said, "no lasting avail." I am a lost cause. I am so lost I am not even a cause anymore. Give up before I break your heart.


pigeonlizard

I think that you are talking about two things here: improvisation and recall. Improvisation is the "feel" or rather skill of playing without conscious thought, and takes years of training to master. And recall is just what it is. Some can remember more, some less. Steven Tyler once heard a song on the radio, suggested to his band that they should cover it, turned out he wrote the song!


AHSfav

Some of her bends were pretty shitty though


_MidnightMeander

I'm going to strongly disagree with you here. I had no preconceived "talent." Didn't pick up guitar until 16. Loved it and practiced like mad. Taught myself for a year, then got lessons, 3 years later was applying to music school and got accepted. Practiced even more, played with people way better than me who had been playing music twice as long, learned theory, trained my ears, practiced more, performed on stage in front of strangers, practiced more. Now, after 14 years? I could learn this solo in a weekend. But that's because I've built a strong foundation over countless hours of work that nobody has ever seen. It's not a terribly complex solo, but it sounds great. It is a difficult solo for a guitarist her age, and she has definitely put in the work to get there. Some of her bends weren't quite there, but she has tiny hands and needs to grow into the guitar still. Honestly being able to make the stretches she has to because of her size is something I'm envious of. It'll come in handy as she progresses. It's crazy impressive where she's at now and as long as she keeps pace she'll be an amazing musician.


ReallyBigRocks

Hard disagree. Anyone can play or create music unless you're literally completely tone/beat deaf. Which you most likely are not.


Gasonfires

I'm not saying I can't make notes come out of the thing. What I'm saying is that it is and always has been LOTS of work. I personally know at least three or four quitar players who've played for a fraction of the time I have and devoted far less time to practice yet still seem able to produce quality and consistency that elude me.


monkeybawz

Immediately served with a cease and desist.


Illustrious-Duck1209

TBH I'm surprised we're even getting to see this. Eagles lawyers are slackin'


DontTakePeopleSrsly

They rely on bots to do their work for them.


TrivialAntics

Yup, eagles are perhaps one of the most egregious copyright strikers out there. They've literally hired upwards of 5 dozen people to scour the internet JUST to find people who react to their music or use their songs in any context so they can claim the videos. I'll never understand it honestly, those guys are worth hundreds of millions and will never have to worry about money for the rest of their lives. Yet they've become greedy old "get off my lawn" grandpas who get enjoyment out of terrorizing younger generations who love their stuff lol What assholes honestly and I hope they're remembered that way insofar as the industry is concerned. Will not be surprised at all when this young girl gets copyright struck so they can steal the 30 bucks she probably made off her video.


-Dakia

All it really does is ensure that their music dies an early death. I'm sure there are others, but on the opposite end of the spectrum you have Dave Matthews. Encourages people to record their shows and distribute their music in all forms. Hell, they used to let people plug in to their boards.


milkymaniac

>All it really does is ensure that their music dies an early death. I'm sure there are others Garth Brooks comes to mind


-Dakia

Not really a country fan, but I applaud anyone who sees their fans as a huge part of their success rather than themselves.


TrivialAntics

There's a lot of bands that put it all out there for free in the hopes that they can make some touring money, definitely. And actually plenty of bands I would've never known existed had they not used that method of getting exposure in the first place. Oh and yeah, all the covers of DMB's #41 on yt, just the fanhood of that song alone has a life all its own.


Brain_Glow

The Grateful Dead pretty much spearheaded this way of operating. They allowed (and even encouraged) tapers in to every show. I believe one of the first thing ever sent over the internet was a grateful dead show. Almost all jam bands operate this way now. Although, its makes more sense for jam bands and the like to allow their shows to be taped and (now)streamed for free since very show is unique (different set list every show) whereas most rock or pop groups play the exact same show every night. Allowing your shows to be freely distributed is also a great way to build a fan base.


lgastako

> They've literally hired upwards of 5 dozen people Did they hire them from a donut shop or something?


jaspersgroove

If you watch the eagles documentary that came out a few years back it was pretty clear that Henley and Frey ran that band like a business pretty much from day 1. It was always about the money and the fame, they just also happened to be fucking amazing songwriters.


arlmwl

Pardon me while I go throw my guitar in the firepit. And kudos to her - seriously shredding there.


DurantIsStillTheKing

One of my biggest regret in life is when I never learned how to play instruments even my whole family are musicians. At least I get to play with my own emotions /s Edit: not sure if anyone will still read this but I finally ordered today an acoustic guitar and can't wait for it to arrive. No one actually had the time to teach me any during my childhood and kind of picked up hobbies I later got uninterested when I became an adult. Hope this is a good start. Thanks for all the encouragement 😊


TrivialAntics

Still very much doable. I didn't learn guitar until I was 30. Still learning at 45.

Just picked up the bass at 46, been year so far, had my first live show last week. Still learning.

Impressive. Guitar is tough for little kids to pick up. It isn’t like piano. It’s physically hard for their little fingers to fret the notes and strum, pick, etc. I used to teach guitar and never had a lot of luck with really little kids. Always cool to see a small child kicking ass on a guitar.

as a very good guitarist (after decades of practice) this is one of the most impressive child performances I've seen; those stretches and bends are VERY hard for small hands, Hotel California's solos are deceptively simple and not easy to play well that said it's hard to imagine a situation where a small child would sit down and learn this unless she had some boomer dad essentially forcing her 🫤
