Some good choices, but in general I must say: Try again guys.

[SinisterMinisterX]

Actually, this list looks just about right to me. I can't disagree with much except "Cinnamon Girl" at #76. Gimme a break - that solo is just one note!

I agree with you SMX!

 

[tehriahn]

If they keep 1/5 of the soli, then they can have a nice top 20.

Nothing from Slayer? Judas Priest?

I agree with the number one choice, Stairway To Heaven [!--emo&:bow:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/bowdown.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'bowdown.gif\' /][!--endemo--] But some of the solos in the list arnt some of the greatest....and wheres Dave Murray? ? ? ?

Some very good choices though, and espcially with Comfortably Numb, What an amazing solo!!! Glad to see some Rhandy Rhodes aswell, and espcially Zakk Wylde!!

But still bugging me that theres no Dave Murray!!!!
