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.

As a guitarist myself I find it difficult to name just one 'guitar solo' anymore, but there are a few performances on solo guitar that I would consider almost transcendental, such as this one:https://youtu.be/OwmljH41B1Q

Mick Taylor was the best thing that ever happened to the Stones, and he was really way too good for them.
