publicListening to this solo again, I can't help but notice how well delay is used to maintain interest in a 10 minute long guitar solo. Things do get a little repetitive, but the use of delay to create a more atmospheric during the slow middle of the song is really nice.

publicThis song is a 10 minute #guitar #solo with no vocals other than a few verses at the start and end. To maintain interest, it does multiple #build-up s and wind downs throughout the song, where the playing becomes louder or quieter to reach peaks and troughs. In that sense, it's very similar to 
Voodoo Chile. Voodoo Chile is somewhat different in that there are more instruments - the guitar gives way to the organ and what sounds to me like a bagpipe at certain points, which makes it easier to keep things interesting.

I think the guitarist does a good job at building up to peaks multiple times in this song, but the lack of varied instrumentation does make the song a little boring towards the middle.

publicAnother song that feels like a prolonged meditation on human suffering and wretchedness that gives me a similar vibe would be 
Human Sadness
Human Sadness ...
publicI think this is one of the few songs I could cry to if I tried hard enough. I read somewhere online that the song came about when someone put the guitarist on shrooms then told him to play as if he'd been told his mother just died, and honestly I believe the story because the song gives exactly that vibe.

It sounds like a reflection on human suffering.
