Like many, including Glenn Frey, One of these nights is up there as a favorite Eagles song. The Felder solo in it only makes the song that much better. So I had to learn it...Well here is my attempt at the solo.

Thanks folks! Its not perfect but its in the spirot of things :) And I think live Felder changes it up too...and in the 76 Houston concert he messes it up real bad at the end :)

The most important thing is the phrasing. Now if you're in the Eagles, they look down at the littlest of imperfections but the thing that makes that solo special is the horn-like phrasing. You got it! Good job.

That's awesome, OMNJ! Very impressive! I showed it to my 14-year-old son and he promptly took off to his room to learn it. Now I get to hear OOTN for the rest of the night!

You did a brilliant job playing the OOTN guitar solo! :thumbsup: I'm another one who absolutely loves Felder's guitar work on this track and you've certainly done the original justice. Great stuff!

Nice playing.I might have a go at that myself!

Anyone got a link to the Don Felder guitar fluff? I always think he looks and plays so smooth he seems like he never makes any mistakes and seems to make everything he plays look effortless!!

Oh is this it? The vocals seem slightly off to me - but the guitar seems a little better??

Sounded great, OMNJ! OOTN is one of my favorite songs, and you did a great job with the solo. You are blessed to have such talent.

Thanks again folks, for the record I have played around with guitars for a while but never been in a band or played live or anything like that. Actually a friend (female) and I (male) just started a "band" together and have been practising some songs to put together a set and in the summer have a party/bbq where we will make our debut (we have a drummer also). So its just for fun. OOTN is not yet on the set because i think theres at least 2 guitar parts maybe 3 and im the only guitar (she plays bass and occasional guitar). But maybe if i can work out an arrangement for 1 guitar we might work it in especially since i have the solo down.

There are two other Eagle songs. Take it easy we kinda have down and will probably be in the set and Hotel California we have messed around with and have the whole song down except for the solo which i have not attempted yet. :)
