post a better guitar solo....

[mouse]

Here's another fun idea...post a more underrated bass solo...

Not bad but it's number 51 at best.

[mouse]

Or pick any of these; (@ 5:47 - my choice - "still got the blues")

Holy top 50 easy!

[silverblk mystix]

This one definitely goes in my top 100.

* the ratcoon pics - go top ten though - rofl *

Pt. 2 of Gary Moore's solos;

EVH for the thread closer!

[mouse]

top 25 easy`

[dirk4mvp]

Eric Johnson is easily better than anyone in this thread besides Hendrix and Gilmour

[Blizzardwizard]

As somebody already posted in this thread, David Gilmour comfortably numb hands down.

[Frank Dux]

I'm not going to say these are better than what you posted Mouse, but I love watching the amazing, "no-name" guitar players out there who make these crazy videos in their bedrooms. This dude totally ripping Mr. Crowley:


331ERock is a maniac, and a star in his own right. So many good videos. Always looks like he's having fun while he plays too. He throws in a lot of homages to his influences. Guitar nerds like myself can spot the Yngwie solo from Rising Force in this one:

[Avante]

Time to raise the bar....

[cantthinkofanything]

For you Avante

That would have been me, and I comfortably agree!

Incredibly smooth and slick, every note counts!

[xmas1997]

Let's not forget Jeff Beck or Eric Clapton!

This thread was already won months ago when the Jimi Hendrix solo on machine gun was posted...

Yep

[spurraider21]

Nice ! but top 50 at best.

something like this will break the top 25

Dio - Rainbow In The Dark

Go to 1:55/3:59 mark on the video.

awesome stuff... while rainbow in the dark is probably his most remembered work, i always thought Holy Diver was just as good. as for the solo, it isn't as intense with the shredding, much its much cleaner




but at the same time its hard to argue with OP, rock bottom might be my favorite solo from a studio version perspective

[spurraider21]

or just -insert a yngwie solo-

facing the animal was a great album... the solo from the le song or bravehheart is up there with just about anything

[DMC]

were you gonna post examples or just name them because they have a little black in them?

And disregarding the fact that blacks disowned Hendrix for decades.

[Fabbs]

Steven Stevens of Billy Idol


Trippy acoustic version:

And disregarding the fact that blacks disowned Hendrix for decades.

When did the "blacks' ever "owned" him or anything else in the first place?

Sorry to have to do this but (as Michale Vick would say) its time to bring out the big dogs.....
300/365 mark

Steven Stevens of Billy Idol
