This thread has possibilities...............

Check out "If My Mind Is Evil" by White Lion......

Now I happen to like the song regardless, but some may find it a little too typical of the time period - i.e. 80's hair metal. Either way it has some really neat guitar within...... yes

'In the Name of God' by Dream Theater isn't that special, but the guitar solo from 8:36 on is incredible Smiley

I wanna rock - by Twisted Sister, the song is okay in my view - but that solo is one of the greatest moments in rock history - scorching!

Back off  Bitch - GN'R. I always thought the song is OK but not standout, however that solo is killer. Very different for Slash - veers from the usual blues/pentatonic into more diatonic modal scales

Megadeth's "Youthanasia" is a lumbering, average song, but that Marty Friedman solo is killer.  ok

Stairway to Heaven and Free Bird would be useless 70's cheese without the solo. Same with Deep Purple's Child in Time: the solo makes the song. I think songs were better constructed in the 80's, when riffs got much better. So many 70's songs are built on a single great solo, but riffs really improved with the 80's.

Yes, Reign in Blood is an excellent example of this! I LOVE that riff!  Grin The first 15 seconds of that song could be repeated 10x and it would still rock!

When I read your original post the other day, I actually went and dug out 'Big Hits and Nasty Cuts', threw it in the stereo, blasted 'I Wanna Rock', and was quickly reminded that I kinda like the song. Sadly, the solo is mediocrity at its finest......... Cry

Not to add insult to injury here Iz, but if someone, anyone, were to tell me that the 'I Wanna Rock' solo is - "superb" - I would simply have to assume that they've never heard a good guitarist play.

EDIT - It doesn't move! It's flat, it's slow, it's sloppy...it's unimaginative!
