GReatest Guitar Solos of all time?

[TehChahlesh]

This thread is for the purpose of compiling(in no particular order) the names of songs with the greatest GUitar Solos of all time. Why? Why not?

However, since I don't want this thread to get out of hand, I must state some rules:

1. Don't repeat song names, that's tedious
2. No one gives a fuck how good you are at guitar, so don't go off topic and talk about it
3. State the name of the song, the artist, and the album.
4. Arguing is allowed

I'll start us off with one that isn't Stairway to Heaven

Eruption
Van Halen

[medieval7]

Hmm, its hard one.

I think its Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne or Mr. Crowley

Played by Randy Rhoads of course.

[Flairider]

Furia Taurina - John Petrucci

[Champigne]

Holy Wars.....The Punishment Due-Megadeth

Dave Mustaine

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtowe
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
The Eagles - Hotel California

[AtomicAgeVampire138]

I think my personal favourite solos are contained in "December Flower" by In Flames on their album the Jester's Race, "Scarified" by Racer X off of Second Heat (Paul Gilbert > Everyone else), & "Retribution-Storm of the Light's Bane" by Dissection off of Storm of the Light's Bane.

[Straight-Edge]

Just about any solo done by Herman Li in a Dragonforce song

[TacticalShoe]

The solo in Don't Start a Band by Reel Big Fish

[zurak]

Alter Bridge - Open your eyes with a guitar solo by Mark Tremonti..

[JackRabbitStudios]

I know with Guitar Hero 80s being out, people are gonna think I'm coping out a bit, but I thought that the guitar solos in Play With Me by Extreme was the greatest guitar solo I've ever heard. From beginning to end.

Two Minutes to Midnight by Iron Maiden gets a honorable mention too.

[QcStorm]

Herman li is simply awesome.

Especially in Through the fire and the Flames. Great guitar solo there. ( Dragonforce )
