****ing seriously? This isn't even my typical jab at Michael Jackson, but I don't really think anything he's ever done should be known for it's guitar work. I'm wondering if this is only on here because of Van Halen's guest guitar random solo.
Still though, a few on the list I agree with (The trooper, Raining Blood) Others I'm confused with (Voodoo child instead of purple Haze, Iron Man instead of Paranoid or Symptom of the Universe?) The list seems mainly a commercial rock wank-off for people who lightly get into classic rock. It's a big audience, easy to sell to. So, I don't see it as that big of a shock.
