best guitar solo? - Page 2

Ron E · 31st August 2002, 02:53 PM

MAny good ones, hard to pick a favorite

Gilmour - Dogs - from Animals

Zappa - Sexual Harassment in the workplace,
Overture to a holiday in berlin.... and many others

KK Downing and Glen Tipton (from Judas Priest) in Dreamer Deceiver or Run of the Mill. These are from albums in '74-'75 before they wrote their "popular" stuff.

A lot of good acoustic guitar on some of the MTV Unplugged CDs, specifically Alice in Chains.

All time favorite, though, is the beginning of Pink Floyds "Wish You Were Here".

There's a lot of good stuff out there, but the ones that stick with me are:
Dave Mason - "Look at Me, Look at You"
Led Zepplin - the last half of "Stairway to Heaven"
Eric Clapton - Too numerous to list
Johnny Winters - "Highway 61"
Jimmy Hendrix - "Machine Gun"
Ten Years After - "I'd Love to change the world"
In that order.

All,
there was a time when i had to practise solving differential equations for a university math exam ... question of survival. I was alternatively spinning Hendrix' "machine gun" and J.S.Bach's "Fuga alla breve" from the 3rd violin sonata, c-minor BWV1005; played by Henryk Szeryng; this stuff launched my mind into the right mood for solving differential equations.

There's a right mood for solving diff eqs?

trespasser_guy · 31st August 2002, 06:11 PM

anything by Yngwie Malmsteen... he is about the fastest guitar player ever, and still manages to put such care into all of his songs... I like it. Also, Henry Paul Band- Grey Ghost has a good one... Led Zeppelin-Stairway to Heaven

I'be been enjoying two a lot lately.... one is Gilmour's final solo in "High hopes" (incredible slide solo) and another is Satriani's "Love thing" (basically a LONG solo).
