Recomend me some epic guitar solos.

[hamsterkilla]

well if you want slow epic guitar solos you may enjoy Joe Bonamassa. He's contemporary blues.
A good example. 2:50 if you want to skip right to it but it builds up the entire song.

Now his guitar solos never reach the epicness of some others but I figured it meets your slow amazing guitar solos requirements.

The whole damn song is a solo. And it is glorious.

 

[Terrifying beans]

I have one. It fits your criteria perfectly and luckily it was recently voted the greatest solo of all time by guitarist magazine readers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwhbcdbkeXY The solo is at 4.35 but I really recommend you listen to the whole track to really get into the ambience of the song. If you do, the solo is nothing short of a religious experience. I know, I've seen it live

At 1:50 your knees will tremble, that's how good the solo is.

This guy knows where it's at.

For a song that will surprise you several times, I recommend all eleven minutes plus of 'No Stone Unturned' by Heathen. The solo is outstanding. See also 'Ironbound' by Overkill for one of the most 'did not see that coming compared to the rest of the song' solos you'll ever hear.

I porberly don't make much sence

Love it. You should listen to anything by NOFX, Dismemberment Plan, the Pixies, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and 80's-era U2. Long, slow, drawn-out, epic guitar solos.

Alright, seriously now:


Also: thanks for screwing over your constituents again with the Captcha, Escapist. I've been trying to get the captcha on this stupid thing for 10 minutes. I had to copy-paste my text so I wouldn't lose it. Which, since you clearly haven't yet figured it out, does not raise my interest level in BONOBOS-"Pants Evolved".

I know you don't usually think of this song for guitar solos, but "Comfortably Numb" has some of the most lyrical guitar playing of all time.

A guy at my highschool played this song for level 3 solo.

He was pretty good, but Satriani does it best.

The Whale Song- Modest Mouse


So awesome. It's not too hard to play either, just make sure you bend the strings right.
