best non guitar rock solo

Off the top of my head, Bobby Keys on sax in "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," Ginger Baker on drums in "Toad," and Jim Gordon on piano in "Layla," for starters. I know there's plenty others.

jean luc-ponty's violin solo on frank zappas 50/50 or even george dukes keyboard solo on the same song.

mike.

Whoever the sax player was for the Traffic band of the late 70s. Check out the cuts "Glad" and "Tragic Magic" on the live Traffic double album; wonderful record.

Dave Ellis played killer leads for Bob Weir's band called Ratdog when he was in that band.

The Alan Price keyboard solo in The Animal's House of the Rising Sun.

Some of Al Kooper's raves on the Hammond organ always appealed to me - "Super Session" perhaps.

Sid Page on violin with Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks - "I Scare Myself". Maybe David LaFlamme on "White Bird" - another fiddle player.

Clarence Clemmons (sp?) for Bruce Springsteen did some great sax solos.
