    Easily is an awesome solo, Pariah. John Frusciante kinda reminds me of George Harrison when he does stuff like that. awesome

    hehe... guitar teachers tended to kick me when they heard that solo. I didn't quit listening to it. I did quit guitar lessons. ;)

    AhA! Funny you posted this. I just had that on yesterday. That's now my favorite, too!
    Although, I just saw Clapton in Philly last week, and EVERY solo was incredible. When he starts out on a slow blues solo, that tone sends shivers up my spine.

    Let It Be - Beatles

    All Or None - PJ (msg 2)

    Alive, Even Flow, Ledbetter, Black.

    Live versions, studio versions, they all rule. Well, the live solos for black are AMAZING. The studio recording is great too, except the solo is equal level to all the other stuff going on.

    Soul To Squeeze - RHCP

    Talk Dirty To Me - Poison

    Yeah, that's right, I said poison. It was the first "rock" song I learned to play the whole way through.

    Always With Me, Always With You-Satch

    You appreciate this song SO much after you practice it for four hours and still can't get it to sound just right. lol.

    hmmm...that's all I can think of for now.

    Though short, I'd say Rolling Stones: Sympathy for the Devil. Maybe it's just the overall sound of the song that gives it the energy, but it's my favorite.

    how could Hendrix's 'Machine Gun' be left out!?!? :eek:
    Time does rock, how about all of obscured by clouds or childhoods end? and some versions of (with dave) astronomy domine and of course there's the brilliance of the atom heart mother suite

    there's many more but my mind is drawing blanks
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way
