Favourite Guitar Solo

[Shoden]

So what are your favourite guitar solos, or songs that can count as a guitar solo? Mine has to be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl7N150HuQY Michael Angelo Batio's Prog, it's alot more melodic then no boundries/speed kills/speed lives


Others include the solos from W.A.S.P.'s The Headless Children album or Metallica's Damage Inc. Disposable Heroes, Whiplash, Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets. There's so many to name, so many styles, so many songs and tastes different people have, so come in and name your favourite guitar solo or link to it on youtube or betteryet the song itself which maybes found streamable at www.bolt.com for anyone desperate to show but can't explain well. So then... Let the naming begin. It can be any type of solo, melodic, ultra fast, crazy, or just out of control or shred.

DragonForce - Through the Fire and Flames

Is currently the sexiest guitar solo I listen to. It is better than you.

[SammieBabe]

Allman Bros. - Whipping Post

[Resha]

Okay. There is this really awesome one in Heartbreaker -- Led Zeppelin. I was like, wow.

[Crushed Hope]

I have two songs which contain my favorite solos:

The first of which is Pain of Salvation - King Of Loss and the other song is Agalloch - In The Shadows Of Our Pale Companion

[I Took the Red Pill]

Any of Stevie Ray Vaughan's or Eric Clapton's solos do it for me.

Quoted for truth.

DragonForce - Through the Fire and Flames

That's the only reason I actually like that song.

[DK]

That song is also better than you, and DragonForce are better than Megadeath, who quite frankly suck.

I think you-know-who is going to hate you for that.
Megadeth aren't all that bad when it comes to solos and rifs but their songs suck. Slayer are good with solos too and Antheax are good with songs yet bad with solos. I like solos to be a mix of melodic, fast and catchy, not just pure shredding like you hear from some people. That's why i like DragonForce, they got alot of good style in their solos, but Michael Angelo Batio can kick assage in that department too, so can many other guitarists. Malmsteen is a pretty good soloist but not all that great. Chris Impellitteri is pretty good in his band.

[Venom]

I cant narrow it down to one solo anymore, so Anything by Megadeth, W.A.S.P., Micheal Angelo and Slayer's solos are my favorite.

However these two are an example of my favorites.

Chris Holmes.

Hangar 18 (note, full song but the solo's are excellent)

Oh also note that Hangar 18 is dropped down a whole step...I have no clue why.

[Aurey]

Robert Fripp's solo in Brian Eno's St. Elmo's Fire.

[LunaticPandora37]

I like this steve vai solo

[DeathKnight]

Fight Fire With Fire has a HOLY solo.

I also like Holy War...The Punishment Due solo, VERY well structured.

[Ramza Beoulve]

DragonForce - Through the Fire and Flames

Yeah. It is better than us , this solo is just great
