I want to know what song you think had the best guitar solo. I thought that the one in Eruption by Van Halen was really good considering how hard it sounded. In your post try to put the name of the song and who sings it.

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
Has to be something by Symphony X, can't decide which. That or a few dream theater guitar solos (Fatal Tragedy springs to mind). -

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
I used to think the 80's were all great and all, that was until I found the 70's, now I find it hard to find anything of worth in the 80's bar Faith No More, REM, Marillion, some 80's camel albums (70's are better) and a few others.Originally posted by AcousticSiobhanComment

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
How about Contagion by The Black Dahlia Murder.
That has the by far sickest guitar solo ever on this planet.
If you actually play guitar youll see why.
Nothing but Tremellos, bends, ghosts, pinch harmonics, scales, and arpegios.
Its insane.
Someone check it out.
Feedback plz.

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
Not really the BEST solo ever, but a cool one.
The bestest would have to be Fury of the Storm by Dragonforce or just about anything by Rhapsody (Steelgods, holy thunderforce, Emerald sword... meh).Truth lies in loneliness, When hope is long gone by -Blind Guardian, The Soulforged

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
Actually that Bohemian Rhapsody solo is a fantastic one, but unrelated to the fact it was from the 80s.
For Rhapsody, I personally like Unholy Warcry, for some reason.
Fury of the Storm is a good Dragonforce one, but also the solos in Starfire are particularly nice.
Helloween's Future World and I Want Out
and Gamma Ray's New World Order I happen to be particularly fond of.
I realize that's a lot of power metal. But also Dio's Stand Up and Shout, I like, as well.Originally posted by Henri PoincaréComment

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
ok seriously im just kidding although that is a really good song by styx. i have to go with bohemian rhapsody. that or maybe thunderstruck by ac\dc
edit: actually i was just thinking. Back in black by AC\DC the actual concert. the 15 minute solo kinda takes the cake if you think about it. that was one monsterously good soloLast edited by Jello; 03-23-2006, 11:26 PM.Comment

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
I saw a van halen live video where he pretty much jammed all of his solos into one giant meteor of awesomeness. It was over half an hour long. Not many other things can top it.
but FOTS and MSWGO are close up there.Comment

Re: Best Guitar Solo in a song
How could anyone say anything except Eric Johnson in Cliffs of Dover?
Although, MSWGO is really good...
