Hmmm....tough one, I suppose it depends on your tastes, and what your looking for in a good solo. I like a bunch of solos, like Eruption, Voodoo Chile, Little Wing(SRV's, not Hendrix's), Another Brick in the Wall and other stuff like that.

All those solos dominate, but I like Sublime's solo from "What I got". Ha, now I'm just playing being the "hardcore" american girl (once again not really) I would have to say Jim national anthom, but that's not really a solo I don't think. I don't know... what really is a guitar solo *scratches chin* (that's a rhetorical question).

Sublime does have good solos in a lot of their songs. Bradley Nowell is the man.

Hans Solo

I believe that you remember incorrectly cuz I think it's Hans too. But then again I don't like the star wars movies that much.

Check out Lou Reed Live Rock and Roll Animals version of Sweet Jane. The intro solo is one of the best you can hear. Its done by two guitarists who are really in sync.

Come to think of it, the solo in No More Tears is probably my fav, right now at least.

If there's two guitarists, how would that be a solo? Hmm... my fav for the moment is... Bonnie Raitt's solo in love me like a man :D. That song inspired me to learn to play guitar.

I must agree with John Redstone...It is Han Solo.
Then I believe that the best solo ever is one of Randy`s solos, maybe Mr Crowley or Crazy Train...or now that I think about it...Every song on passion and warefare by Steve vai is pretty much a long solo...maybe one of them is the best.

I think the best solo ever has to be a tie between any Metallica, Hendrix, Randy Rhoads, SRV, or some early Dimebag Darrell solos. I think Dime's solos get worse and worse every time a new album comes out.
Rock and roll ain't noise pollution, but it can get pretty crappy these days.
