There used to be a band call wrathchild america who did an album called 3d man, I used to love a track called dessert grins, had a kick assage solo, Ill see if I can find a copy.

Many of the Vito Bratta (spellchk?) solo's on White Lion's 'Pride' album were very cool and tasty... "Wait" & 'Tell me" spring to mind. Not Shred fests or too over the top but they fit nicely with the songs and were perfectly executed.

I don't think Vito ever played a less-than-superb solo on a record. The lead break in "Little Fighter" still amazes after all these years.

Yea man, that dude always had a cool way of playing.

A couple of Nirvana solos (Blew, Serve the Servants) prove to me at least that the idea that Kurt couldn't play guitar is utter bollocks. Sure he wasn't the most technical player, but he had a sense of melody that most shredders lack.

Almost everything by Opeth...if that hasnt been mentioned already.
The phrasing, note selection and general vibe is flawless imo

"Mr. Wilson" by King's X - nothing flash at all (even I can play it) just tasty as and fits the song perfectly.

I used to have that album, good stuff. I always liked "Alice In Hell" better though.

I've posted this before, but it's worth inflicting on you all again. Dweezil's solo is so cool even the video can't deal with it...

This is one of the best solos I've ever heard a from guy who probably doesn't get a lot of recognition.

Smells like teen spirit. Simplistic yet full of sinister charachter. Quite fitting.
