Eloy's guitar solos on 'Floating' are simply sublime, no wonder it's my favorite album of theirs.
Also recently remembered the solo in Lacuna Coil's 'Zombies', love how it plays over the crunching guitar.

There's also sort of a watered down (but still entertaining) version of Eruption on VH III called 'Primary'. Just more Eddie Shreddie

An awesome solo that always comes to my mind is Faith & Decision by Versailles (min 3 approx.)

Oh yeah, How could i forget "Eruption" Deep Purple had great solos too. "Highway Star" is probably one of the earliest shredding. Too many to count!

Well the entire song is pretty much Van Halen just shredding the guitar, so I guess the entire song is a solo.

Becker, Friedman, and Romeo certainly are three of my all time favorites as well.

How could i forget Steve Vai. Yankee Rose and Shyboy from David Lee Roths first album and his amazing Passion and Warfare album. And Dimebag from first couple Pantera albums was incredible as well

Hell yeah, Adrian was on top of his game on that album. Stranger in a Strange Land might be my favourite solo ever, and Wasted Years is also great. Too bad he doesn't tend to play it all the way to the end live. Other favourites are the Pulse version of Floyd's Comfortably Numb and something that nobody else has ever mentioned, In Flames's Satellites and Astronauts.

I don't have a favorites list but here are a few i can come up with on the spot:
Mr Crowley by Randy Rhoads (really everything on the first two Ozzy albums is kick ass) Guitars Suck by Bumblefoot (same goes with all his solos really) anything by Marty Friedman on Rust In Peace and his early solo albums anything on Jason Becker's Perpetual Burn Most Symphony X albums First Boroslav Mitic album (and 2nd) Early Metallica albums Steve Howe songs like The Clap, Nature Of The Sea Paco de Lucia's early flamenco albums in the 70s early Iron Maiden and the list really goes on but these are some of my faves from a technical point of view |

uh, I could give two hundred answers on the subject. lol
Well, I'll talk about 5 songs that I remember now: The Ballad of Leonard and Charles (Exodus) Holy Wars (Megadeth) When The Water Breaks (Liquid Tension Experiment) Stairway to Heaven (Led Zepellin) For the Love of God (Steve Vai) There are many other songs I have a question, but I wanted to highlight these. |

Some other Lifeson solos I really enjoy are "The Necromancer," "Farewell to Kings," "Freewill," "Natural Science," and even "The Analog Kid."
