What is your favorite guitar solo of all time?


It's a difficult question,maybe your top 2 or 3 that year after year blow you away and raise the hair on your head and move your soul inside.

Almost forgot - another of my favorite solos has always been George's solo on 'Taxman' ... even after I learned it was actually Sir Paul playing that solo - doh! So good they pasted it onto the end of the song for a second time.
"Spoonful"/Eric Clapton Cream/Wheels of Fire

Been listening to this since its release.
I'm convinced this is one of the most profound expressions of human emotion in the history of recorded music (any genre).

The first time I heard it I literally could not stand.
It was like a tractor beam or gravity fault dragging me down.
It sort of felt like I was having a mild stroke.

While I don't condone the message the lyrics imply,
I find Mr. Clapton's performance overwhelming (Jack & Ginger as well).

Music? Oh yes...

Robert Fripp going completely crazy on Brian Eno's "Baby's on Fire" from the album Here Come the Warm Jets." When I first heard it nearly 35 years ago, I stood in complete awe -- and laughed, too. Had the same reaction when I listened to it a few months back.
