mikhay77 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 [quote name='beely' timestamp='1340915944' post='1711605'] I suppose I could post any number of Bill Nelson guitar solos that would highlight his sheer genius but this has to be my favourite of all time. Starts at 1.49 and doesn't last nearly long enough.

mikhay77 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) John Perry's feel and tone on this Only ones track just fits the song and lyrics perfectly.Nothing flash to great feel,main solo around 2.40 but a couple of little teasers before. Good solid bass and drums too! [url="http://goo.gl/jGD7Uw"]http://goo.gl/jGD7Uw[/url] Edited August 21, 2013 by mikhay77
Annoying Twit Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) I like simple, melodic, solos. Here's an example of one of my favourites. Solo starts about 1:50. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF0RKKQsLHU[/media] More examples would be much of the guitar solos on Shine on you crazy diamond, and Frank Zappa's more melodic moments, e.g. many solos on Roxy and Elsewhere. Solo starts around 2:20. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3Tic-HjKD0[/media] Loads of others. Don Felder's (I presume) solo on 'Try and Love Again' is a short, poppy, solo, but I like it. George Harrison's "Something" solo is a bit of a popular choice, but it is a very nice solo. Edited August 28, 2013 by Annoying Twit
