    lynyrd skynyrd-free bird

    It may be an overplayed song, but that solo gets me every time.
  • how could i forget metallica?!?! :eek: how good is hammett particulary the solo in "one"?
    The wind is blowing cold
    Have we lost our way tonight?
    Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

    Feels like were all alone
    Running further from what’s right
    And there are no more heroes to follow

    So what are we becoming?
    Where did we go wrong?

    if we're on metal.. i definitely think Mustaine would take it here.. his solos are so well thought out and rhythm based... holy wars into hangar 18 off rust in peace is some amazing shit.. his riffs can be even crazier than his solos!

  • Garcia always did it for me, sometimes when I hear 'As Tears go Bye' live by the Stones it also gives me that wordless feeling.
  • "Chilling" is hard for me to think of besides "Comfortably Numb", but there are some that prevoke a lot of emotion and you can really feel em inside

    Phish- "Divided Sky" - no real solo but a lot of the riffs in it.
    Tea Leaf Green- "Franz Hanzerbeak"
    Pearl Jam - "I Am Mine", "Come Back"
    "Stairway to Heaven"... duh
    Lynyrd Skynyrd "Tuesday's Gone"
    Clapton "Layla" both unplugged and regularly


    I'll edit and add more as they come to me
    Camden I '06, Camden II '06, Bonnaroo '08, Camden I '08, Camden II '08, Philly Spectrum II/III/IV '09, MSG I '10, MSG II '10, Made In America '12, Wrigley '13, Brooklyn II '13, Philly I '13, Philly II '13, ...
  • Some guitar solos that give me chills are:
    Live versions of Black by who else
    I Could Have Lied by John Frusciante
    While My Guitar Gently Weeps by Eric Clapton
    Ocean Size by Dave Navarro
    Wind Cries Mary by Jimi Hendrix
    Whitewater by Josh Homme
    Heartbreaker by Jimmy Page
    L'Via L'Viaquez by Omar Rodriguez
    Cortez the Killer by Neil Young
    Vamos by Joey Santiago
    and of course
    Bulls on Parade by Tom Morello
    “Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’” - Kurt Vonnegut

    David Gilmour - Echoes (live at pompeii version)

    Tom Morello - Township Rebellion

    Mike McCready - Alive

    Jimmy Page - Dazed and Confused

    Thank GOD someone mentioned Alive...EVERY time i hear that solo, live or studio, i get chills. That song is what made me a Pearl Jam fan, that solo is what inspired me to pick up a guitar. Absolutely AMAZING, McCready's solo in that has to be one of the best guitar solos of all time IMO.

    Mansfield II '08

    EV Solo Shows:

    NYC I
    NJPAC

    I. LOVE. YIELD.

    I agree with Come Back, only studio though, the effect on that solo when it comes in right at the end is amazing.

    As much as I love Mike, the solo came straight from The Doors "Five to One" to "She" by KISS. Then Mike used it so most of the credit has to go to Robby Krieger
