Two immediately spring to mind:
Tony Peluso's on The Carpenter's Goodbye To Love
Richard Thompson's on Fairport Convention's A Sailor's Life

If you want a good solo you can't just name a song, it has to be a live performance, like the Star Spangled banner Woodstock '69. That song and others is below and also recieves bonus points for being played in front of a Japaneses crowd 番!

Love a good guitar solo.
Got to add my voice to Albert Lee, Country Boy. Clapton has to be there, but for interest check out his brave stripped back solo on 'Rambling On My Mind from Mayalls 'beano' album.
Jimmy Page....almost anything, seriously, almost anything. However Achilles last Stand would be too long for your purposes, so for 'blistering' try Communication Breakdown from Led Zep One, and for maturity, taste, beauty and restraint try Tea For One on Presence.
All Right Now taught all of us to play Air Guitar, and Hendrix 'Watchtower' is almost unsurpassable.
There are loads out there, you should dig out some Paul Rudolph from the Pink Fairies too, sadly the recordings don't do justice to them as a live beat combo.. Thin Lizzy is also a good shout.
I would avoid flash pyrotechnics, and put in stuff with musical taste and merit which adds to, or comments on, the song wrapped around the solo. for that reason I think riffs don't qualify on this little enterprise. Good luck, I wouldn't dare personally, because a project like this will cause ructions.0 -
Excellent track Alex. He knew what to do with a Strat and a Marshall that's for sure.
Didn't quite sound the same with my junk shop "SG" and Woolworths "Audition" amp!

Bold as love - jimmy Hendrix. Not least because my wife walked down the aisle to that solo when we got married0
-
Joe Satriani................Living in a blue dream. The version on Youtube `Live at sweetwater' is worth a look.
For a bit of guitar trivia, Albert Lee lived in Canberra rd for a while.0 -
What does the solo own in this context?0

Good call.fatrob said:Anything by Steve Vai
Not a solo as such but this clip shows some of Stevie's skills and that he shouldn't wear shorts!
