And acoustically there's a few from Leo Kottke, Django's Nuahes, and Lindsey Buckingham's Big Love.
"The End" from Abbey Road with John, Paul, and George trading solos. This is my pick for its significance as well as its beauty.
I always liked Andy Summers' solo on Driven To Tears (on The Police Zenyatta Mondatta lp) especially after reading it was the sonic manifestation of Sting having Andy so pissed off at his constant telling the others exactly what to play and how to play it. You can almost hear Andy strangling Sting's pompous neck on that short solo.
