Nothing Else Matters - just the fact that Hetfield lets it rip in such a personal song... fucking under-rated.

One - Just explodes in your face..

Floods - Dimebag's finest

Nemesis (Arch Enemy) - really fine... can't help but air-guitar to it.

there's tonnes i'm missing.. some zeppelin/sabbath songs.. fill in the blanks for me.

Buddy Holly - "Peggy Sue"


Great solo, great rhythm solo, great sound; perfectly clean, inventive, witty, and compact. (y)

Prince's solo to "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" during atribute to George Harrison. Definitly a face-melter. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh8dYJWcsdg

Each of the ones on Scar Tissue are simple but very effective.
Obviously better Fruiscante solos are If you have to ask, Funky Monks and My Lovely Man.

hey, i said favourite - not greatest here, playa

War Ensemble - Slayer. i know - slayer solo's are just crazy and speedy, nothing melodic. but in relation to the song, the two guys shredding in this song is fucking mad.

I wasn't referring to you, man, I was talking about the Eruption, Stairway etc post.

That being said, the solos on Hotel California and Freebird, despite their triteness, really are quite enjoyable.

I was also gonna say the one on Stairway and...

wait for it...

the one on the unplugged version of Layla.

They were decently easy to learn on the guitar.

Beat It-Michael Jackson

I was almost certain it would have already been metioned, its an awesome song and an awesome solo.

I heard Van Halen decided, right after he got out of the studio, that he wouldn't charge Michael Jackson for the solo, because he was so pleased with how it turned out.
