Wow!
Not a single response.
I'll give it some love.
I had never heard the song before. I thought the solo was passionate
and inspired. (I thought the outro solos were even more passionate.) I
also loved the tone.
When I was considering my choices, I tried to think of the most
lyrical solo--the one that I felt served the song the best. I wasn't
necessarily going for the most technically difficult solo. If that had
been my priority, I would have gone in a completely different direction.
I think your pick has emotion and feel in spades. The guy has some
very good pentatonic chops, too. I didn't feel like it was
particularly lyrical, though.
So, what makes you declare it the #1 rock guitar solo ever? What
qualities does it have that you'd rank it that high?
