111 guitar breaks that are mostly one note

I think there's quite a few of these. Near the end you're allowed one or two extras, but it should be mostly a single note
So Boredom by the Buzzcocks doesn't count as its 2 notes

1. Chuck Berry - Johnny B Goode
2. The Prisoners - Who's Sorry Now
3. The Libertines - Can't Stand Me Now
4. Glenn Campbell - Witchia Lineman

5. Nirvana - Moist Vagina

drone

intro feedback

iirc

6. The solo on the Who's "I Can See For Miles"

7. The solo on Neil Young & Crazy Horse's "Down By The River"

8. king crimson - starless

9. The solo on "Cinnamon Girl"

there has to be more psychedelic stuff. drones, feedback,sure, as long as it has rhythms..not just a continuous sound

uh there's a lot more than one note in Down By The River

its the first part of Down by the River solo, i guess. I'm interested in seeing how long it can be sustained and still grip

I meant the first part of the solo, not the whole thing.

How long are we talking about? A measure? One minute? An entire song?

Intro to Motor Away (single version) by GBV

All of Spacemen 3's "Suicide"

among others

12 - 'When The World is Running Down' - The Police

Tom Petty "America Girl" obviously - although Campbell really goes in at the end

14. Guitar solo in "Over The Edge" by The Wipers

15. Rheostatics - "King of the Past" has a guitar solo in it that has one section where Martin's just wringing different tonalities out of the same note, and while he does definitely play other notes, that note still outweighs all the others throughout.

How long are we talking about? A measure? One minute?

I'm wondering the same thing because I hear more than one note in any guitar break on "Johnny B. Goode".

Shagg's "Philosophy of the World" has four notes hit several times. In the memory it gives the impression of two notes.

After The Flood by Talk Talk has over a minute of what sounds like a guitar feedback solo on one note, although it might be a treated version of that keyboard they used to use that sounded a bit like a guitar.

I Wanna Be Sedated

Re: Spacemen 3's "Suicide"

i hear a second note around 2:22, a third after another minute. wonderful stuff.

okay fine Repeater

There's a middle section of a guitar solo in Eurhythmics' "Conditioned Soul" that's a single note--the most memorable part, even though the rest is pretty flashy.

There must be a dozen Joey Santiago solos that do this. Probably a few Marc Ribot solos, too.

Counting Crows "A Long December" essentially

Yo La Tengo - Little Honda

Doesn't one of the Buzzcocks' singles have a one note solo? Can't remember which...

sorry, two notes 66 times, so sayeth Wikipedia:
"Boredom", probably the EP's most well-known song, announced punk's rebellion against the status quo while templating a strident musical minimalism (the guitar solo consisting of two notes repeated 66 times, ending with a single modulated seventh.)[4]

that's some good writin' btw!

not a solo per se, but you gotta admire Neil Young (yeah him again) for playing a total of 4 notes TOTAL throughout the entirety of Buffalo Springfield's "Everydays"

Bush "Swallowed"

Red House Painter's cover of Silly Love Songs has about 20 seconds of awesome one-note riffage.

Death Cab for Cutie's Blacking Out The Friction has a one-note guitar part pretty much all the way through iirc.

The Lemonheads "Great big no"

'love is a feeling- - public nuisance

Kelley Deal's guitar part in The Breeders cover of 'Shocker in Gloomtown'; one note all the way through.

Buzzcocks' What Do I Get? has another 2 note solo

three.
