Les Claypool/Primus - Jerry Was A Race Car Driver
Stanley Jordan - Stairway To Heavon
Megadeath(Mary Friedman) - Hanger 18

I don't know if these are the "greatest" but they are certainly my favorites:

David Gilmour - Comfortably Numb
David Gilmour - Marooned
Carlos Santana - Bella
Reeves Gabrels - Why Do I Feel Like I Am Bleeding?
Jeff Beck - Two Rivers
Mark Kendall (Great White) - House of Broken Love

about the only one I'd kick out of the greats list is kendal, but I have a vendetta agains great white for that one song I can't seem to get out of my head (once bitten),
oh shiznit... there it goes again... just like "small world after all..."

I never liked Great White at all, but I heard that song once and had to have it. His playing on that particular song is way above what I ever considered him capable of, considering the nature of their general recordings.

You really should listen to it just once, for the guitar work alone

that's the whole idea behind this post... introduce me to many players/solos/songs I wouldn't have visited otherwise.
I will take your advice... as soon as I can locate the song.

Gary Moore, Shapes of things live on "We want Moore"

Jimi Hendrix-Voodoo Chile Slight return Live wood stock
Slayer-Angel of Death(Kerry King)
Pantera-Domination(Dime bag Darrel R>I>P)
Exodus-Lunatic Parade
Kreator- Koma of Souls
Mayhem-Freezing Moon

good call on steve stevens... have a hamer steve stevens.
love that rythm style on that song... solo is a little bit "makin noise" but def a controlled noise.

Quite a few great guitar solos by some great musicians have been mentioned except a couple... [/b]DRAGONFORCE, they have two lead guitarists who I still drool at when they play. Then there is the great man of the chickens, BUCKETHEAD. Watch him play live before you die! I was lookin like this (@@) during the show. On the 6th day god made the chickens, on the 7th day he built BUCKETHEAD!

And a truckload more where they came from

everytime I watch Joe Satriani play "Devil's slide" on the live in San Fran dvd...... I still get goosebumps... just incredible... its just....incredible. It's just....... incredible...... I cant describe it to ya....
you just have to see it.

Satch boogie is a great one as well.

I thinks the guitar work by Tonny Iommi (sp.?) in "Heaven and Hell" is right up there.

Ritchie Blackmore - Man on the Silver Mountain... nice riff.

Lanny Cordola - Angry Candy
