Pale Blue Eyes Part 2

 

Check out this live performance from the VU reunion in 1993. Can clearly see Lou playing it in G but, frustratingly, there’s not a single shot of Sterling Morisson.

 
In this lesson I’m looking at Sterling Morisson’s lead guitar parts and solo from this Velvet’s classic from 1969. (For Part 1, looking at Lou Reed’s easy to play rhythm part, click here.)Nothing too challenging technically here,  just some memorable, beautiful playing. I’ve written it all out for you below. I haven’t gone to the trouble of writing out all the verses and choruses since, bar the odd minor variation, they’re all the same. Download the music/tab here.
