It's a chordal riff, but they are definitely chords, since you play the leading note and its relative third.

It's aprgegggiated, because you doe not play the notes together, but individually, so they do not ring out.

I’ll look again, but to my mind it’s a ( fairly simple) riff. It’s not anything I would associate with being arpeggios.

Debunking what bullshit.

NSIS is wrong.

I'm not going to argue with him, because he has his own views on the matter, I have mine.

I believe that the outro solo is an arpeggiated series of chords, split into thirds between the two guitars (not octaves), and he doesn't.

That's the way I'm learning it, and I've listened to studio track about 200 times over the past three weeks, tabbing out both solos.

Mate he was playing over eel pie island with names when you was sucking nom nom out of maters udders. Technically they are broken chords, lets face it Les you're an ok pub guitarist, stop embarrassing yourself yeah.

I don’t believe I am wrong. As I’ve said, I’ll look at it again when I have time, but it’s not anything I’ve ever associated with arpeggios
 
Out of interest Hotel California sounds remarkably like Jefro Tulls 'We Used to Know'. Jeffr0 Tull toured with the Eagles in 1972 and whether it was malicious or other. Ian Anderson is convinced 100% that enough elements were lifted from his tune.

The outro is played with a triplet feel, with repeating patterns of three notes. For the 1st bar, guitar #1 plays the notes b, d, and f#, repeated over 5 times. These are, respectively, the tonic, minor third, and fifth of the chord Bmin. It doesn’t sound like a chord (to a lay person) because the notes are arpeggiated.

Guitar #2 plays exactly the same motif, but exactly one third (in scale) up the neck - so d, f#, and b.

And so on.

They are chords and they are arpeggiated.

You are correct that one of the guitars plays the notes in that order, because it’s following the leading guitar which starts on the d note, and it follows in thirds.

The point I am trying to make is that the notes describe the chords of the verse, with tonic, third, and fifth; and they are arpeggiated.

I don’t see how anyone can dispute that.

I never knew this and i tend to generally look out for this sort of stuff. I'm certainly going to be giving it some research, and on just one very brief listen of the track i think Ian Anderson has every reason to be convinced.

Don't worry about it Les, it'll probably sound like Status Quo anyway.

I’ve got most of the solo down.

Learning the notes is the easy part, it’s nailing the phrasing that takes the bulk of the practice.

You’ll know that from playing your pink penny whistle, Skids.

Like NSIS I was gigging 30 years back while you were learning house bashing. I learned piano as a child which although I hated at the time put me in good stead later in life. I can also play woodwind and harmonica to a reasonable level.

With my kind or hard-hitting socially aware banter one cannot make a comedy omelette without cracking a few eggs, mate.

Anyway, that was the old HIAG.

New HIAG is a different animal.

‘Old’ HIAG loved a sock account.....

He also hated Stan.

Brb announcing that Stan would serve an incremental ban for very sock account that he found, could be manna from heaven for ‘Old’ HIAG......just saying,...........
