Going for 3 - Layla (Dereck and the Dominos) - You can feel the pain in each note when Clapton lets rip.

Then One Small Day - Ultravox. Midge Ure is a VERY underated guitarist

Finally a hip hop record of sorts - Bomb the Bass - Dont Make Me Wait.

If we're talking Utravox then you've got to mention Billy Currie's keyboard solos...

The solo on the single version of 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago is concise and flippin ace. Terry Kath was the shizz. The horns ain't too shabby either. Could only find the album length version on YouTube :(

THIS.....
Terry Kath is prob the most underrated of guitarists....... he really was something else!

Hate to admit to knowing the personnel on a Lionel Richie track but yes, Running With The Night was Steve Lukather. Also a wicked bass part and especially tone from "Ready" Freddie Washington :)

Couple come to mind. Both Steve Lukather (well certainly the first one and probably the second one)

Rosanna and Running with the night by Lionel Richie.

Yes, both top solos, and yes both by the man who owns the most shirts in the world.

That was Joe Chemay on Bass Guitar. Not sure that Freddie Washington was even on the album?
Abe Laborial and Nathen East were also both on the album.
:)


Edit: All the credits are here.

Always loved John McGeoghs playing in the Banshees and I'm pretty certain it was the solo from Shot by both sides that grabbed peoples attention.

This^^. Also, that Barry Adamson bassline is rather cool.
