Favourite B-Side/Out Take

[The Plotblocker]

So you are saying you listen to that clip more than you listen to any other B-Side?

I didn't include it in the list for 2 reasons; the first being that the complete song is unheard. But secondly, I am pretty sure the song was never finished and that the ideas were worked into a song from the Tremonti song on All I Was, so no longer qualifies as an unreleased AB song.

[Blackbird]

I actually think the ideas have been worked into Blackbird, the song, as well. Not in terms of the harmony, but the fingerpicking rhythm is almost identical to the Blackbird intro.

Good point. I haven't read that anywhere, but I can definitely hear what you mean, very similar.

Little bit. Hell, it even gives me a Stairway to Heaven vibe.

Also reminds me of the intro picking to Back to Me by 3 Doors Down, which of course was made well after Solace was ever made.

I think we may have a winner here lol. Not by much though........

Never Say Die so freaking catchy

[Buffon]

Disappointed by the lack of Zero love here.

Kick-ass riff, lovely groovy beat in the verses (I love that the guitars are silent, highlights the bass line), some of Myles's best lyrics that tie in perfectly with the rest of the album, and a pair of kick-ass solos in the bridge and outro. I think I read somewhere that the band wasn't happy with the chorus, which is why they ended up dropping it from the album. It isn't as strong as the rest of the song, but still works for me. One of the top five songs from the AB III material.

I feel exactly the opposite and could never see why people like the song at all, lol. It's a bottom 10, maybe even bottom 5 AB song overall for me.
