Weird Al Yankovic Eat It Guitar Solo with TAB (Rick Derringer)

Details

Description

I was a huge fan of Weird Al Yankovic fan when I was a kid. I had most of the earlier albums on cassette tape and vinyl. 3D (1984), Dare to be Stoopid (1985), Polka Party (1986) and Even Worse (1988). What I remember most about these earlier records is connecting the parodies to the real songs. I would also do this fun connect the dots game with Hip Hop samples when I was a teenager. The other interesting connection is that Rick Derringer who just recently passed away produced all these albums. He also played what could be considered a parody guitar solo on the song Eat It. This is a parody of one of the most popular guitar solo covers on youtube, Eddie Van Halen's Beat It solo. Even though I love Eddie Van Halen, I haven't covered this guitar solo because it's been overdone, and I also don't particularly like it. So this solo made the most sense to me, it draws attention to the great Rick Derringer and it also gives some underrated guitar solo content to youtube. This guitar solo also makes me laugh at the end which is so awesome. The only other guitar solo that I can think of off the top of my head that makes me laugh out loud is Frank Zappa's guitar solo in Any Kind of Pain.
