The Addictive Solo

[LooK iTz Jinjo]

Master of Puppets.
Actually just about anything by Metallica. Love Suicide and Redemption.

I seem to be doing a lot of agreeing on this thread, so it's time for a controversial statement.

I despise ridiculously shaped guitars like this.

Well, your plan seems to have backfired somewhat. I hate guitars with stupid shapes like that.

Oh, yeah. A solo. The Dark Eternal Night by Dream Theater has always blown the brains of myself and a few friends. I'm not even sure that most of it is guitar, it's so fast. I'm also a fan of the guitar work in the first movement of The Light by Spock's Beard.

[Under The Chestnut Tree]

Dire Straits- Sultans of swing.

 

[The Rockerfly]

Baba O'riley - Intro Piano solo
Hotel California - Guitar solo
Any guitar solo by Slash
Black Betty - Drum solo
Oh and finally most vocal solos by Within Temptations, probably Angels is the best vocal solo

'Museum of Iscariot' by Virgin Black has this great lamenting electric guitar solo over a acoustic guitar backing. I think it's fantastic, not sure about you guys though.

EDIT: Also at the end of 'Once in a LIVEtime' Mike Portnoy has a fantastic 7 minute long drum solo, the man is a machine.
