The title says it all!

Don't agree?.....Then leave now because this thread is not for you.
True fans who like to have there faces melted only please ;)

    I've always liked Mike's solo in "Wake up" on the Mad season disc. On the "live at the Moore" recording it sounds great too. But studio, DAMN :D

    also, "Immortality" from Benny Hall and the one from self pollution radio 95.

    I wouldn't say THE greatest but one of the best.

    All his live Black solos are great.
    Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford
