Shreddermon said pick one [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] not a whole list of the greatest solo's [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Greatest SOLO [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I can agree w/ Bill in the 80's you have Eddie, Randy and Yngwie. These 3 players in my opinion are the 3 most influencial players ever in rock guitar playing. If you go back further you have Hendix. Everyone else falls in the middle of those four cats.

Sorrow is amazing, specially on the PULSE live album, Gilmour owns.

I don't know if you have seen them live, but I saw them twice on the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour and it was just unreal...yes, Gilmour owns and has always been my favorite guitar player.

Re: Best Guitar Solo of the 80s?

My 2 pennies lie in the 'Ryche's Jet City Woman Solo. it kills me! Either that or the dual solos in I Don't Believe in love or Eye of a Stranger, off of Mindcrime. those are my fav. 80's band solo picks!

I'd have to say Brad Gillis/Jaff Watson for Don't Tell me You Love me.

Yeah, that's a tour de force. And two completely different styles.

And, Bill, I said "please". [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Great one, too. I've got that and "Della Brown" on a mix disk, just for the solos.

Mood swings....I'm taking lots of pills for this shit..

they're not workin'...none of them.

Let me say this , Explosiveness and the high capability to physically harm people is NOT a good combination....that is why I take pills...to numb me from people...I'm not numb enough..

when someone is "rude" to me or chllenge me , even if percieved...I go instantly into this friggin' "KILL" mode...it's pretty fucked up to be honest...but I'm workin' on it..I really am.....I seen 10 doctors so far and thousands of $$$ later ..and no relief at all yet!

so what can I say...Sorry for bursting...again! [img]/images/graemlins/eyes.gif[/img]

I know this isn't healthy..but I have no control of it at times...it just consumes me.

shit , fuck and goddamn! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Re: Best Guitar Solo of the 80s?

Last in Line has a great solo in it.
BTW... I am a HUGE CC Deville fan myself. I pretty much like every solo he ever played in the studio. His solo's sound really easy until you try to play one. Talk Dirty to Me is a fairly complex solo to nail. He also plays with a total in your face super loud straight up tone.

Re: Best Guitar Solo of the 80s?

TOTO - "I won't hold you back" had a nice solo.

Bill, does any of this have to do with the fact that you have yet to come out of the closet? Jump out and be free!! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/fart.gif[/img]

I still chose EVH - Beat It.

Re: Best Guitar Solo of the 80s?

jet city woman came out in 1991, so you'll have to make another selection.

Bill, let your inner christian come out, know one will laugh at you, i promise.

I agree jgcable, its a blast to play too. I like that old Dio/viv stuff. Last in line, Raninbow in the dark and Holy diver were on the set list on couple cover bands I played in.

James Hetfield is a guitar solo?!? I've never heard of that. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
The harmony solo he does with Kirk in Master of Puppets is cool. I think the only other solo I've ever heard him do is Nothing Else Matters, which actually is pretty good. Did he solo on anything else?
