I'll just randomly pick Mirror Of Sins by Made Of Hate because it starts with the guitar solo.

Disregard this post.

Invincible by Muse.

Live improv solo of "Hollow Years" by Dream Theater at Budokan. Starts at 4:34.

And the solo at the end of Octavarium, also by Dream Theater, by far the most favorite solo I've learned and played yet.

Metallica's "Death and Redemption" (title may be wrong) solo halfway through is absolutely magical.

The end of the Pink Floyd song Pigs (three different ones) It's 9:38 minutes into the song. It's amazing, it screeches in and just goes on as the song fades out. Greatest solo I've heard so far.

Actually, it's just some chromatic tapping, and some pentatonic phrasing before and after. Pretty simple to pull off if you know what you're doing.

My favorite is from the song 'Eruption' by Eddie Van Halen.
Actually, the entire song is one whole guitar solo.
I don't think that it is the best guitar solo, but it has to be in the Top 20.

Amen! Eddie is the best thing that ever happened to music, and Eruption is his gift to all of us.
