Favorite Guitar Solo


What is your favorite guitar solo? The one that bypasses your cerebral cortex? The one that best hits your emotional center? Any genre. Any period. Any length. A million notes. Or just one note. Obscure or famous. You can make any excuse as to why you choose it, but explanations are optional. But you gotta choose just one.

My choice? Eric Clapton’s solo in "Sleepy Time Time" from the Fresh Cream album. Simplicity. Emotional ecstasy. Tone.

Or, is it 'Peg' as played by Jay Graydon after a handful of session cats attempted takes?
Frank Zappa on 'Inca Roads' (Ink Erodes...) from One Size Fits All. Solo is imported from the Helsinki '74 show documented on You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore vol.2

All mentioned above are great, i cannot choose

Jeff Beck - Cause we ended as lovers.
Alex Lifeson - Timelight (Rush).
Steve Hackett - Firth of fifth (Genesis).

and many more.
Santana, Tash Sultana, Bruce Springsteen, Joe Bonamassa, Adrian Gurvitz, Chris Rea, Snowy White… oh so many !!!!
