Members docjeff Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 The Beatles. "End" from Abbey Road. Dave Stewart. "That's When the Day Goes Down" (Eurtyhmics) Mike Campbell. "Breakdown" (Tom Petty...) Kirk Hammett. "Creeping Death" Derek and the Dominoes. "Why Does Love Got to be so Sad." Stephen Stills and Jimi Hendrix "Old Times, Good Times" Stephen Stills and Neil Young "Deja Vu" Neil Young "Cortez the Killer" Rolling Stones "Exile on Main Street" great solos on lots of songs--best rock album ever. Eddie Van Halen "Unchained" or "Mean Street" Pat Metheny "The Way Up" best album he's ever made. Great solos from start to finish. Chet Atkins "Mr. Sandman" David Lindley "Take it Easy" (Jackson Browne's version--the original, still the best!) or just about anything on Browne's first four albums with Lindley. Mark Knopfler "It Never Rains" the guitar solo on the outro is neato. Snowy White and Doyle Bramhall III. "Comfortably Numb" with Roger Waters on his live CD/DVD. The twin guitars are amazing on this and other Pink Floyd songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dewees Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 Pat Martino - Impressions (from the "Consciousness" album) Pat Metheny - Third Wind (from the "Still Life - Talking" album) Metheny's solo on Proof (from "Speaking of Now") got him a Grammy award. He sounds a lot like Martino on that solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rocknrao Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 Neil Hagerty in Royal Trux's "(have you met) Horror James" J. Mascis in Dinosaur Jr's "Out There" Jimmy Page in "Communication Breakdown" bonus: (not really a solo, but pretty cool anyway) the dueling wah-wah guitars on the bridge of "In n' out of grace" by Mudhoney.

Members John Bartus Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 Gotta echo the Knopfler comments -- although he hasn't produced any real stinkers, some of my favorite guitar work was on the Love Over Gold album.Also, Larry Carlton's solo on Steely Dan's "Third World Man" (from Gaucho) is a tasty treat for the ears.Let's not forget Mike Campbell (with Tom Petty) -- more tasty licks, especially the outro to "Running Down a Dream."Dave Gilmour with Pink Floyd...Tom Scholz...Eddie, Eric, Buddy Guy, Jimi... the list goes on...

Members MorganBucks Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 "Celebration Day! - Page."... I have to agree on that one it is genius ...the first dolo I learned note for note and I still play it and it sounds fresh today. "I Play Guitar" has a great solo too by Rick Derringer off the Album RD Album Good Dirty Fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mightysasquatch Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 1. Kid Charlemagne/Steely Dan-Larry Carlton. (for technique and originality) My favorite solo ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bjjp2 Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 Although it's cliched to say so, I really have to go with "Stairway to Heaven." The job of that solo is to transition the song from the slow part to the wild, hard rocking fast part. The solo accomplishes that perfectly. It brings the song to another level.

Members jerry_picker Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 Originally posted by SASQUATCH My favorite solo ever. Whenever I hear Kid Charlemagne, I manage to listen to the first couple notes objectively, and then I'm transported somewhere else, and by the end of the solo, it's like "what the hell happened and how did I get here ?". Inspired playing if ever there was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
