Several of my students have responded to my question about great guitar solos. Based on their responses the top 25 list should be:
1. "Stairway to Heaven" Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)
1. "Hotel California" Joe Walsh (Eagles)
3. "Free Bird" Rossington/Collins (Lynyrd Skynyrd)
3. "Sweet Child O' Mine" Slash (Guns 'N Roses)
3. "Voodoo Chile" Hendrix
6. "Little Wing" Hendrix
7. "Texas Flood" Stevie Ray Vaughan
8. "One" Kirk Hammett (Metallica)
9. "Time" David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
10. "Sultans of Swing" Knopfler (Dire Straits)
11. "Ball and Biscuit" Jack White (The White Stripes)
12. "Bohemian Rhapsody" Brian May (Queen)
13. "Aqualung" Jethro Tull
14. "Blue Sky" Duane Allman (Allman Brothers)
15. "Stranglehold" Ted Nugent
16. "Layla" Clapton/Allman (Derek and the Dominos)
17. "War Pig" Ozzy Osbourne
18. "Crazy Train" Ozzy Osbourne
19. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" Edge (U2)
20 "Purple Haze" Hendrix
21. "Soul Sacrifice" Santana
22. "Johnny B. Goode" Chuck Berry
23. "Mr. Crowley" Randy Rhoads (Ozzy Osbourne)
24. "Eruption" Eddie Van Halen (Van Halen)
25. "November Rain" Slash (Guns 'N Roses)
Overall, not a bad list. For my two cents it is missing Joe Bonamassa, Billy Gibons, Joe Satriani, CC Deville, and Jason Hook. I guess I'll just have to do my own list next.
