Your Favorite Guitar Solos

This thread is for guitar solos . Though technical performing skills (singing, instrument playing) in general don't seem to be as important to today's mainstream music industry ..., I love the way a good guitar solo pours out the heart, soul and guts of a song. As I stated before, I love all of the obvious classic solos and anything by Django Reinhardt, Joe Pass and Jimi Hendrix. I love guitar solos from all genres, whether it is classical, blues, jazz, country, acoustic, rock, flamenco,"latin"...I encourage you to share your favorites, there are no right or wrong answers.

As I said before the Great Forum Crash, "Barracuda" by Heart is one of my favorites.

Also Boston's Peace of Mind

I agree with many of what you've said and also the "Still got the blues"

especially the solo starting @ 3:45

The solo in Heartbreaker by Led Zeppelin. Jimmy Page is God.

I always thought that solo was messy. He has much better solos. Unless you mean the live version.

John Fahey

I usually don't like guitar solos but in Muse - Invincible, Matt Bellamy shows why he's a one of the best guitar players in our time... Fantastic guitar solo, finally something new...

And also well maybe not a "good" guitar solo, but i'm loving Aaron North's insane solo in Nine Inch Nails - The Big Come Down live version...

Two (relatively 'new') great solos:

Audioslave - Doesn't Remind Me

Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like We Do".

Bachman Turner Overdrive's "You Aint Seen Nothin Yet".

ZZ Top's "Stages".

Joe Satriani's "Summer Song".

Prince "Purple Rain".

I love Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb

Also Boston's Peace of Mind

Tesla's Love Song

Extreme's More Than Words

And Dokken's Alone Again

man, dokken kicks major ass

in high school i wanted to be mrs george lynch SOOOOOOOO BAD!!!!!

man, you can only really choose older songs since the guitar solo has pretty much removed from

rock.

but i thought of 3 more

one-metallica

rage against the machine--bulls on parade

SRV--little wing

MUSE - Hysteria

2:25 - 3:04 = THE BEST!

I Need You Tonight- ZZ Top

Like A Stone- Audioslave

Arguably my favorite solo ever (The whole song is bassically one big solo) Ice- Camel

November Rain- Guns N' Roses (Slash does a great job here)

Freewill- Rush

Stranglehold- Ted Nugent

Cocaine- Eric Clapton

Layla- Derek and The Dominoes

Flight Of Icarus (Live after Death Version)- Iron Maiden

Cruel Little Number- Jeff Healy Band (Yes in case you are wondering, Jeff Healy is blind, and does the solo here)

Dazed And Confused- Led Zeppelin
