Hong Kong Garden - Siouxsie and the Banshees - not exactly a trad solo but the chordal bashing towards the end is rousing

Public Image by PiL- the opening guitar riff by Keith Levene

Baker Street - the tortured wailing solo here. dunno who played it

Nearly all stuff played by the Hellecasters esp Orange Blossom Special. burning

Satch -too many to name. 'Big bad moon', 'Surfing..' and 'Cant slow down' big faves.

Country Boy by Albert Lee, esp the opening riff

Hot Rails too Hell by Blue Oyster Cult, esp the trebly bit towards the end - Buck Dharma. v underrated player

There are so many songs with solos that I love the whole way through from so many bands that I'd be writing all day here. Though there is one solo that never seems to get old to me. Cold Hate, Warm Blood by Cryptopsy. That song alone is their best song ever written, let alone when the solo starts it's amazing. Course other songs by them like slit your guts and phobophile have amazing solos as well.
The Gods Made Heavy Metal, And They Saw That It Was Good
They Said To Play It Louder Than Hell, We Promised That We Would

Hulk Smash!!
