What is your favorite guitar solo?

[Reckoner]

It doesn't have to be the best, technically speaking. Instead, something that will cause you to put everything else on hold if it pops on the radio.

For me, I'd have to say Comfortably Numb. It's such an impressive solo to listen to.

 

[xanis]

Either "Time" or "Stairway to Heaven"... i LOVE those solos, but Time is my favorite.

 

[BW86]

Comfortably Numb

A friend of mine is a big Queen fan and did this for me.

If you don't recognize it, you're not worthy.

The ending solo to Joe Satriani's song ironically called TIME is absolutely Killer..

the entire Flying in a Blue Dream song by satch is good as well, as long as a plethora of Dream Theater solos....(end of "lie" is holy)

[imported_Lucifer]

Way too many to name.

 

[thoro86]

tommy emmanuel, karlie may, any accoustic solo...

 

[Pyromidion]

for me Lights (Journey) makes me just stop what I'm doing and turn it up. Neal Rocks

Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb. I love the guitar tone. I've tried to duplicate it and can't.
Lanny Cordola - Marriage of Figaro. Mozart meets modern electric guitar. Complete with a sitars and a banjo interlude. It makes my list if only for the amusement factor.
Zeppelin's - Whole Lotta Love. The solo is short but it has great tone.
Gary Hoey's cover of "Wipeout"

 

[thesurge]

Solo in Freebird is pretty awesome.
Purple Haze/Voodoo Child

 

[Pepsi90919]

[potato28]

Eric Clapton's Cocaine, Freebird, Stairway to Heaven, the list just goes on and on...

Yeah too bad that fegula Steve Perry has to ruin it with his vocals.

 

[BrokenVisage]

I guess no one heard of Eruption? That would be the BEST solo, but my favorite is probably at the end of Starship Trooper by Yes.
