Do some of you guys have guitar solos in your head, once in a while?
I often have them, especially when there's a certain melody or hook that I like and when it sounds good enough to remember.
Let's try to follow Plesiosaur's example with his favourite song of the day and see if we can pinpoint our current favourite solo. It doesn't have to be "of this very day", it can also be a solo you heard last week or month and it caught your attention. Perhaps the solo part made you even play the track more than once in order to hear it again.
If you like to can show the solo to your fellow forum member, with a link and a time indication.
I'll kick off with:
Running Wild - War & Peace (1998)
solo: 3.45 - 4.16
It's imo not too complicated, but very effective. A well chosen melody, "hitting the right snare", so to speak, to evoke my enthusiasm. The chords and the rhythm underneath do the rest!
(BTW: explanations are not necessary, the solo alone is good enough.
)
