What is your favortie guitar solo of all time? Dont post any ska,punk, or other BS... im talking about a real guitar solo. My all time favorite solo is by Dan Fogelberg RIP. Maybe sultans of swing or pink floyds time or cigar or rainbow in the dark comes to mind but this is hard to beat(solo is at 3:25 for non-fans):

I'm more of a keyboard fan.

Give me an organ solo and I'm set.

One of many from the maestro Paco...
when strings not only produce complex scales but can actually sing...

Piano is more difficult, not many solos come to mind maybe rifts like toto-hold the line or jethro tull -locomotive breath...or maybe you like straight solos like bach or mozart?

 

[meketrefe]

Paco de Lucia and Manolo San Lucar, two guitars..

All music is good if you like it. Those guys are from the area the guitar came from.

Listen to Toquinho from Brasil for Bossa and Samba...
improvising....

 

[meketrefe]

Of course the maestro Narciso Yepes.. all by himself....

Close your eyes when you listen to this..

 

[meketrefe]

Keith Medley from Kentucky of course...

Organ.

And you can't forget:

A lot of the rock bands I listen to always must have strong keyboards.

For piano? Come Sail Away. xD Not a "solo", just a nice tune.

 

[cgrutt]

This comes to mind...

Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing

Pretty lame, you post that than post a video for a pretty basic blues based top 40 guitar lead. The term "solo" is over used and used incorrectly, if its part of a song, its a lead. how about something like this:

Yngwie Malmsteen Acoustic Guitar Solo - YouTube

John5 Solo - YouTube

 

[Evild]

oh yeah, I forgot what might be the best solo of all time

 

[de17walt]

One of the greatest drum solos
