Guitar Solos


As a serious music listener and a musician,(although I am a drummer) nothing makes me shiver like a good guitar solo. It's seems to be a dying art,at least in popular music. Still lots of good guitar in blues and jazz. Some of my favs : Dear John by Jack Semple ,La Grange By Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Aqualung By Martin Barre with Jethro Tull and Bluest Blues by Alvin Lee. I'd love to check out some other peoples favs, a couple old and maybe a couple new??

Steve via on David Lee Roth's Goin Crazy...one of the best put together (as opposed to jam) pop solos i've ever heard.
i saw Via with zappa when he was about 18. not quite HS but close enough. what a killer player. Nuno Bettencourt from extreem is another producer of tastey killer rock solos. Blues and Jazz is just so loaded with solos i couldn't make a pick on the best ones
