What are your favourite guitar solos? It doesn't matter if they are technical or not or how long they are. I just want to know the solos that make the hair stand up on the back of your neck! I will list mine below:

In no particular order:

'There Was A Time' - Guns N' Roses (Played by Buckethead) (Honerable mention for Robin's solo too)
'The Garden' - Guns N' Roses (Played by Slash)
'Estranged' - Guns N' Roses (Played by Slash)
'Sweet Child O' Mine - Guns N' Roses (Played by Slash)
'I Could Have Lied' - Red Hot Chili Peppers (Played by John Frusciante)
'Three Days' - Jane's Addiction (Played by Dave Navarro)
'Ocean Size' - Jane's Addiction (Played by Dave Navarro)
'Listen' - The Panic Channel (Played by Dave Navarro)
'Stripsearch' - Faith No More (Played by Jon Hudson)
'Epic' - Faith No More (Played by Jim Martin)
'Silvergun Superman' - Stone Temple Pilots (Played by Dean Deleo)
'Bi-Polar Bear' - Stone Temple Pilots (Played by Dean Deleo)
'Busy Bee' - Ugly Kid Joe (Played by Dave Fortman)
'Hummer' - Smashing Pumpkins (Played by Billy Corgan)
'Soma' - Smashing Pumpkins (Played by Billy Corgan)
'Stand Inside Your Love' - Smashing Pumpkins (Played by James Iha)
'Them Bones' - Alice In Chains (Played by Jerry Cantrell)
'Man in the Box' - Alice in Chains (Played by Jerry Cantrell)
'Like A Stone' - Audioslave (Played by Tom Morello)
'Alive' - Pearl Jam (Played by Mike McCready)
'Xanex' - Medication (Played by Logan Mader)
'This Love' - Pantera (Played by Dimebag Darrell)
'Floods' - Pantera (Played by Dimebag Darrell)
'No More Tears' - Ozzy (Played by Zakk Wylde)

I know that's quite a list but I didn't wanna leave any out! I may have to edit this soon when i'm listening to a song and an amazing solo kicks in! I'm interested to hear what solo's you guys are feeling.

*EDIT* I can't believe I left out Maiden, although they have so many great solos I could be here all day listing them! Basically everything off the first album and 'Somewhere in Time' kicks ass. Some of my favourites are:

'Prowler' (Played by Dave Murray)
'Strange World' (Played by Dave Murray)
'Stranger in A Strange Land' (Played by Adrian Smith)

Good call! I guess there are so many Slash solo's I could list from his Guns days though (Double Talkin Jive is another). 'Slither' is definately his best solo post Guns IMO.

That's Buckethead, if you mean the one that kicks in right at the end when Axl screams "It's such a crime you know it's truuuuuuuue!". I agree, as always, killer solo from Bucket! I loved his Madagascar solo at Rio too.

^ Love those too.


My ultimate favorite guitar solo is 'Till Your Well Runs Dry' by Peter Tosh. It's euphoric. Close your eyes when you listen to it.

'Wet Sand' - Chili Peppers / John Frusciante's solo is another great one. You can feel the emotions pouring out.

Rod Stewart's 'I Was Only Joking' has a great guitar solo as well. I'm embarrassed to admit that I have no idea who the guitarist is. Thought it was Jeff Beck. Whoever it is, he's amazing.

There are too many of them, so I wont put up any lists here but I'll just say that I love almost everything from Slash, Frusciante, Perry and Page. One I just found is this fucking amazing solo by Rogers Stevens/Christopher Thorn, Blind Melon - Deserted. Check it out, the live version is just mind blowing! drool

The version I'm talking about is on their Best Of -collection, there are couple of live version of the song on YouTube too, but they are a bit different; the solo is shorter and as they are audience shot videos, the quality isn't that good Tongue

The studio version is also ok, but the guitar solo is not on the same level.
