Hiya fellow forummers. I wonder which bands you like because of their guitar solos and would you care to mention some songs which contain really nice solos in your opinion?
Here's my list:
Judas Priest - "Painkiller", "Between The Hammer & The Anvil", "Rock Hard, Ride Free", "Run of the Mill", "One Shot at Glory", "Hard As Iron".
Scar Symmetry - "Deviate From The Norm, "2012: The Demise of the 5th Sun", "Mind Machine".
The Arcane Order - "The Superior Collision", "Bloodlust".
Rush - "Limelight", "La Villa Strangiato".
Soilwork - "Chainheart Machine", "Needlefeast"
Black Sabbath - "Glory Ride", "Neon Knights", "Jerusalem" & everything from the "Headless Cross" album!
Nocturnal Rites - "Eternity Holds".
Jacobs Dream - "The Warning".
God Dethroned - "Nihilism".
Helloween - "Giants", "Warrior", "Pleasure Drone", basically all solos by Kai Hansen in the 1985-1988 period.
Iron Savior - "Riding On Fire", "Atlantis Falling".
Dio - "Rainbow In The Dark", "Don't Talk To Strangers", the outro-solo (more of a melody to be honest) of "Egypt - The Chains Are On".
A lot of Arch Enemy solos are of a very high quality (difficult to mention only one or a few), the same goes for the band Gamma Ray.
Some non-metal bands:
Dire Straits - "Where Do You Think You're Going", "Sultans Of Swing", "Brothers In Arms"
Pink Floyd - "Comfortably Numb".
Thanks for contributing!
