OK, I cannot read any music and have zero knowledge of how to rate good versus bad I just know what I like. So for those who know how "good" and "difficult" is the ending guitar riff for Journey's Whose Crying Now? Thank you

I don’t know how difficult it is to play, but it sounds amazing, even today. The entire band shines in this outro, really.

The melodic line is pretty easy if you have any experience with lead lines.The solo in between the melodic lines is a little more nuanced but still not hard.

Starting with the E on the 12th fret 1st string, the notes are:
E G D G C G B G (repeat 2 x)
E G D G C G B A B (then do a wide vibrato/bend to move between B and C)

E G D G C G A (repeat 2 x)
E G D G C G B A B (then do a wide vibrato/bend to move between B and C)

Awful song, but that guitar work you're referring to isn't too bad.
