Most of Hendix's solos, esp. on Machine Gun and Watchtower.
The Watchtower solo by Tim Reynolds on DMB Live at Red Rocks RMFO. If I'm driving and that song is on, I always end up going way too fast. So...I don't listen to that in Virginia. still:mad:

Another goodun' is Hammet's solo on Master of Puppets.

The best solo's were in the '70s and '80s.

It totally comes out of nowhere each time and they are just amazing in the context of the song.

It's an unheard of album, but I'm very much into acoustic sets... and "String Theory" by Jason Truby (formerly of Living Sacrifice and P.O.D.) has a song called "More Than We Are" that is intoxicating.
RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!

I may be a bit biased, but Tim Sult from Clutch can rip out a few killer solos, one that stands out is Big News. David Gilmour on Dogs is one for the ages as well.

For some reason I have always loved Jimmy Page's riffs on Bring it on Home. They're not overly technical, I just love listening to them.

But I like just about anything from Page up through and including Physical Graffiti.
King Crimson
6/1/2007, 08:00 AM
there are some great sludgy riffs on Graffiti.

Oooh, I just thought of another one that I haven't listened to in years.

Minstrel in the Gallery by Jethro Tull. While I like some of the 70's Tull, I'm lukewarm on Ian Anderson's overall body of work, but the guitar solo at the beginnin of MITG rawks. Hard.

Any live version of Let There Be Rock by Angus Young.
King Crimson
6/1/2007, 08:42 AM
someone mentioned it, and i think Slash is vastly overrated but the Sweet Child O' Mine solo is pretty cool.

Hendrix on any of the versions of Red House or Catfish blues is some heavy stuff.

the clap is good too, on the Yes Album i think.

It is The Yes Album, but it's Clap, not The Clap.

This will be my only opportunity EVAR to musically correct King Crimson and I am by doG taking it.

No, you're wrong. He was talking about a venereal disease.

And I just looked on my iPod and it is lsted asd THE Clap...I could swear I read and article about how the original title had been Clap, though, and it was so often mis-stated they just went with it...

:mad:

It ought to.

I'm also partial to his intro solo in Couldn't Stand the Weather and the middle solo.

Can't. Already buried her in the back yard.

Or did you mean something else?
Howzit
6/1/2007, 11:45 AM

Actually, I also found several refernces to just "Clap" also. We'll call it a draw...or I will. :D

I did try Bryter Later. Good stuff, but I personally prefer Pink Moon.

Kind of like the whol Richard Thomson deal, I listened to a lot of stuff up through Across a Crowded Room, and prefer that the most. Haven't listened to any newer stuff yet.

the outro from "The Darker Side" by Jonny Lang

I just wish Lang would STFU and play his damn guitar. He tries way too hard to be a gravelly-voiced blues singer. He's really a damn good guitarist, but instead of playing solos he's trying to be Tom Waits.

Fave solos are off live albums.

100,000 Years - Kiss, Kiss Alive. Yes, they're silly, but Ace's solo in this song is great.

What Goes On (Live In Cleveland) - Velvet Undergound, Peel Slowly and See box set. Beautiful loud barely in control master solo.
King Crimson

I have to toss "A man I'll never be" in there from Boston too.

That solo sounds like like a fight with the spouse with make up sex.

Yeah...thats why I haven't bought any of his albums since "Wander This World", which I really liked. "Lie To Me" was flippin awesome though, but he's kinda gone downhill since then.
