Favorite Solos

[tooKute]

Well, soloing isn't required of every player. Rhythm is more than enough to showcase ones skills.

There was this one Indie band I heard though, Overvil River, the song was called For Real. What I recall most is how ridiculously bad the solo was.

tears in the rain -joe satriani
texas flood - srv

.. although they are both songs, they are really more like long solos.

Metallica - Orion. Not my favorite solo of all time (c'mon, how can you choose ONE?), but definitely would be on the top of the list.

Well, the solos don't make the song SUCK as such, but when I'm enjoying a good piece of music which is interrupted by some flash guitar solo, it is annoying. Nah actually, I don't mind solos as long as they don't go on forever, with some exceptions.

It fits the song, plus the solo is kind of dirty which fits their sound, I don't see anything wrong with it though Okkervil River soloing is kind of eh for the most part because its unnecessary.

Fixed the vid.

When posting a youtube vid, delete everything to the left of and including the = in the code.

Frank Zappa-Sexual Harrassment In The Workplace. He is one seriously underated guitar player.

[hm. rude, + not ginger!]

I really love the solo in Blind Guardian's Into The Storm.
