Best Guitar solo ever performed on stage (metal, punk, rock)

ZeppelinAir · 07-25-2006, 12:00 AM

cant really say what the greatest is, but my favorite is from More Than A Feeling, From Boston, a work of art

I heard that song was recorded with like 100 guitars overlapped on eachother

ZeppelinAir · 07-25-2006, 12:04 AM

really? where you here that, either way its still a great song and solo

**LesPaul43** · 07-25-2006, 12:07 AM

I think one of my dad's friends told me that

ZeppelinAir · 07-25-2006, 12:13 AM

huh, heard it on on the radio, live version and it still sounds pretty much the same

I don't know if anyone has heard this astonishing piece of musical genious, but I think the 1 minute+ long electric guitar solo towards the end of Saxon's 'Ride like the wind' is the most UNSTOPPABLE solo EVER!!

Pure genious, that's all I can say.

Comfortably Numb- Pink Floyd. What a solo at the end!

I dunno. What about dualing banjos? that song is amazing, and the whole thing is technically a solo...

Ya maybe wouldnt have thought of it as a solo. Good song alright!

Ok you guys got lots of the good ones but missing are: (sorry for any repeats)

Brian May "We will rock you" So simple so tasty.
Vernon Reid "The cult of personality" It sounds as if he will explode.
Jimmy Page "Good times bad times" The solo bits at the end sound as if the amp is exploding.
Steve Vai "The attitude song" The whole song is unbelievable.
David Gilmour "Comfortable numb" Both solos.
Frank Zappa "Whippin Post"
