Give us yer top five...or ten.

 

Try to keep it to officially released albums (it can be a live show, but leave it to live shows that have been published by an actual record label like The Who's Live at Leeds)....or at very least something you can link us to on YouTube.

 

I'm sure you saw Trey do this amazing solo in "Free" at the Phish show that you went to that one time in that one city, but lets stick with the parameters :D

No Particular Order:

 

  • Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing (That solo always leaves me wanting more...)
  • David Gilmour - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
  • Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode (1957 - One of history's first rock & roll guitar solos from one of history's first rock & rollers.)
  • Dickey Betts & Duane Allman - The Whipping Post (The At Fillmore East version, of course. It was the entire 23:03 minutes of album side 4, and it was amazing.)
  • Jimi Hedrix - Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) (If that solo doesn't pump you up, I don't know what will.)

I agree with you 100% on that. For some reason I love the solo in Little Wing more than almost any other Jimi solo, or any other guitar solo for that matter. It's so short, not extremely technical, not what you would call ripping, it just one of those things you can't put into words. What that Little Wing solo gives you in that little tiny bit is something you know came straight from the soul.

Randy Rhodes/ Ozzy - Crazy Train

Eddie Van Halen/ Eruption (not really a solo)

 

Love Eruption. Finally got to mark off my list getting to hear Eddie V play live and it has made me appreciate all of his stuff 100x more than I ever did before. Great guitarist.
