Your Favorite Guitar Solo

[Bulletinmybrain]

I rather like RATM Know your enemies guitar solo, but I can't really name a song where I disliked tom morellos guitar work.

 

[esperandote]

the day that never comes
Corazon espinado - maná feat Carlos Santana, or viceversa
te quiero - Hombres G

 

[mikecoulter]

Stairway to Heaven- Led Zeppelin
... What? Don't give me that look. It's a great solo.

Say it ain't So- Weezer

Yesssss, I get bad looks from my friends for liking Weezer, they're just so good...

Don't worry. They're just jealous because we have good musical tastes.

I wouldn't mess with these crazy cats!

Spoiler: Weezer!

 

[Wadders]

T.A.Z. by Black Label Society/ Zakk Wylde is pretty cool.

Spoiler

So is the solo for this live performance of Domination by Pantera. Solo starts about 3 mins in.

Spoiler

So yeah, I'd say they were a couple of my faves. There are too many ace solos to choose from really...

 

[Seigelinde]

I like the Afterlife solo from Avenged Sevenfold. The second solo in Swallow the Razor by Bang Camaro is pretty jammin' too. Some other honorable mentions are the solos in Girl I Know, Scream, and the acoustic solo at the end of Sidewinder.

 

[No-Superman10]

Must...Resist...Freebird....

well i'll do it for you 4 mins 48 seconds in WOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Lowbreed]

Bodom Beach Terror by Children of Bodom.
Guitar solo gives me chills every time.

 

[butterkniferampage]

Bass solo in aeroplane by the red hot chili peppers.

 

[War Penguin]

Stairway to Heaven- Led Zeppelin
... What? Don't give me that look. It's a great solo.

Hells yeah!
(But I still miss Matt Sharp. Don't get me wrong, though. The other bassists were/are good, too.)

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Ozzy Osbourne- Mr Crowley.

God Randy Rhoads was epic.

 

[King O' Da Bees]

One song that always catches my ears is "Hit the Lights" By Metallica. I nearly flipped when I heard Black Tide play it at Warped Tour. Like half of the song is guitar solo.

 

[G1eet]

Anything by Protest the Hero. But if pressed, I'd say either Blindfolds Aside or Sequoia Throne.

And... on another note, the beginning to Marianas Trench by August Burns Red.

 

[George Palmer]

"Watermelon in Easter Hay" by Frank Zappa.

Look up the live version on youtube. Its eyewateringly amazing and beautiful.

 

[Skooterz]

The solo in the acoustic version of Eric Clapton's Layla. It's so damn good. I could think of many others but that one's at the top of my head so there you go.

This. And also "Iron Man".

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Holy Wars - the Punishment Due

by Megadeth

diddly diddly screeeeeeeeeee

anything off Rust in Peace really.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Michael Jackson and Slash- Give into me

Hallelujah!

Amazing, epic solo in an amazing song.

Doing air guitar for it note for note is my party trick... lol

 

[TriggerUnhappy]

Comfortably Numb [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkJNyQfAprY] - Pink Floyd
Stairway to Heaven [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxMoesasza4] - Led Zeppelin

My two favorite solos of all time, the fact that Zeppelin's was improv. is just amazing.

 

[Laro]

The PULSE version of Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd is my personal favorite at the moment.
Though if we count bas guitar soloes as well, it is Anasthesia (Pulling Teeth).

 

[Socken]

Free Bird, Stairway to Heaven are obvious choices.
I also recommend the solo from Zombie Inc. by In Flames though. Starts about halfway through the song when the acoustic part starts. Awesome.
