what are some of your favorite guitar solos?

my favorites are in the songs:
Guns n` Roses - Sweet Child of mine
Tool - Stinkfist (live in wilkes barre, PA)
Tool - Push it (Live Salival Version)

Eruption ^__^ Van Halen
I went to a Mettalica concert a while back the solos Kirk Hammet did were pretty amazing ^_^

My favorite solo? Metallica - Fade to Black has been one of my favorites for a long while.

The Man Who Sold The World
-Nirvana.

yes - close to the edge.

oh ya it also has this ultra-sexy keyboard solo.

The bands name is "Yes"?

yes :D man, its good to see a few enlightened who still knows about them. Frusciante (spelling?) of rhcp said he gets a lot of inspiration from yes' clean melodies. Most of the time its not music id listen too, not cause its in any ways bad, just not my cup of tea.

I dont know if my favourite guitar thingie qualifies as a classical guitar solo/intro, but, I get the shivers everytime I listen to Radioheads - Hunting Bears from Amnesiac. So very slow but every note at the right place.

I often look for random songs. A while ago I found an MP3 of a game called castlevania. Never played the game, but the metal version of the themesong is sweeet.

Look for "Castlevania Metal"

Haven't been able to find any legal restrictions on downloading it, so I guess it's legal to find it via kazaa or soulseek or whatever :)

Europa - Santana

Long and hard. I still cant get some parts right(even after 3 months of playing it for fun).

so true :)
one of my favourites is Pink Floyd - Another brick In The Wall Part 2. also i love Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Child.

Eruption by Van Halen for sure so insane

I like Concierto de Aranjuez (spelling?) by Joquin Rodrigo. Overplayed, but classic

Dude, in 100000000 years, i would have never thought a band would call themselves "yes", and ive never heard a song from van halen, so im gonna go download a few from yes and van halen :P

noob.

yes and van halen are awesome...not that similar really...but yeh

i listen to mostly 80s music, so, there arent that many guitar solos in 80s stuff

maybe your listening to the wrong 80s stuff.

Brian May's Concert Shizzam

Dire Straits - Sultan of Swing

Lamb of God - As the Palaces Burn
Lamb of God - Ashes of the Wake
Yngwie Malmsteen - Far Beyond the Sun
Lots of others...too lazy to list


Eruption is overrated and not as crazy as it seems.

Yes > all.

my favorite is Acoustic Alchemy - Slap it Down, and also the intro to pink floyd - wish you were here

I love some of those harmonized Iron Maiden solos. Even though I kinda think Iron Maiden were idiots their solos rock.

Eruption - Van Halen
Phantom of the Opera - Iron Maiden
One - Metallica
Civil War - Guns N' Roses
Dreams of Grim Evergreen - Kiko

download the NES emulator and the Castlevania 2 ROM, it has some pretty good songs
