thats just a few off the top of my head, there are so many awesome guitar solos out there

and yes i play guitar :thumbsup: :D

Just get high and listen to the solo in the Iron Maiden song "paschendale", it blows my mind like no other solo ever has.

EDIT: btw littlewing, I don't think No Leaf Clover has a solo:confused:

Black Napkins-FRANK ZAPPA

Buck Fever-Estradasphere

I love the vast majority of the Pink Floyd solos

but my favorite has to be Mr Crowley by Ozzy....off the Live and Loud album is the best.

Favourite guitarist is David Gilmour, best solos are;

Agree with little wing on Comfortably Numb, the liver version is simply the greatest solo ever, though the album one isn't too bad either.

Not strictly a solo but I love the intro for Coming Back to Life by Floyd as well, David Gilmour at his best, not the hardest bit of guitar work ever but one of the best intros ever.

Nothining Else Matters by Metallica has a pretty good solo in it, as do alot of Gamma Ray songs.

All I can tink of at this early hour, I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Yeah it does, the timing for it on the song is 3:15. check it out, its fucking cool:rasta:

I'm not much of a solo person when it comes to guitar. I've always loved the low end chunk sound of the guitar. But some of my fav. tunes to play are:

Pantera-Yesterday don't mean shit, I'm broken, War Nerve
Slayer-New Faith, Reining Blood
Metallica-Master of Puppets, Battery
Hatebreed-This is Now
Rage Against the Machine-Freedom, Bombtrack, Killing in the Name
Sublime-Greatest Hits

I play everything pretty much, but I love playing the heavy shit the most. :) Sublime is fun to play, and I LOVE playing the Blues. I don't really know any Blues acts, but I know most of the scales and such. I just improvise when I play mostly. Just go with the flow. :)

Peace.
