Ok, so I just wrote out this whole thread, only for my KaW to refresh and log me out, so sorry if it seems rushed, I'm a small bit annoyed. As the title says, 'Favorite Music Solo?', this topic for you guys to share your favorite solos, whether they be Drum Solos, Guitar Solos, or any other solos. As for me, I have a small list I've put together, of my top 5 favorite Solos. Sorting this list was hard, because they're all absolutely AMAZING solos. 5. First up on the list is 'Sympathy for The Devil' by The Rolling Stones from their Album 'Beggars Banquet' 4. Number 4 on the list is 'Hotel California' by The Eagles, in the Album, which is also named 'Hotel California'. The Guitar Solo at the end of the song is a really good one, earning this song the spot of Number 4. 3. 3rd on the list in another Guitar Solo, this one is from the Song 'Hey You' by Pink Floyd in their Album 'The Wall' 2. Number 2, close runner up to number 1 is 'Stairway to Heaven' by Led Zepplin in their Album 'Led Zepplin IV' It is a Guitar Solo by Jimmy Page. 1. That leaves number 1, and if you haven't noticed, I only put Guitar Solos in this list, so here is another one. A Guitar Solo in 'Comfortably Numb' by Pink Floyd, also in their Album 'The Wall'. This song contains my number 1 favorite Solo of All Time. That leaves you guys, post your favorite Music Solos down below.
Mine would be the solo in Metallica - One. The guitar solo right at the beginning. It's giving me chills when played live.
Maybe not favs, I'd have to think more about it but Lynyrd Skynyrd Freebird and Avenged Sevenfold Sidewinder for something more recent.
My favorites off the top of my head... 1. "Eruption" by Eddie Van Halen. Nuff said. 2. Dimebag Darrell's solo in Pantera's "5 Minutes Alone". 3. Jimmy Page's solo in " Heartbreaker".
Any of the various solos in SRV's "Texas Flood". And the intro to "Crazy on You" by Heart is one of my all time favorites.
