Billy Beck has posted his Top 10 Guitar Solos, so I might as well post mine, I guess. They’re not in any order. (Interestingly enough, my first two guitarists are the same as Billy’s, only with different songs.)
1. Eric Clapton - Crossroads
2. Terry Kath (Chicago) - Question 67 & 68
3. Hugh Burns - Baker Street
4. Jimmy Page (Zep) - Since I’ve been loving you
5. Brian May (Queen) - Bohemian Rhapsody
6. Tony Peluso (Carpenters) - Goodbye To Love
(I share this one with Billy—probably one of the most beautiful lead solos ever written)
7. Larry Carlton (Steely Dan) - Kid Charlemagne
8. Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple) - Highway Star
9. Jan Akkerman (Focus) - Hocus Pocus (live version)
10. Yngwie Malmsteen - Dark Star
