Slash


Sweet Child (the big one at the end), Estranged, November Rain, Fields of Joy (Lenny Kravitz song he played on).


"Comfortably Numb" (Dave Gilmour)


"Mr. Crowley" (Randy Rhoads in fact mosy of his solos were pretty damned awesome)


"Little wing" (Hendrix)


"Hotel California" (Eagles) - Not a fan, but great solo


A good old one is in My Sharona by The Knack, although it goes on a bit!

I've never been a huge fan, but Brian May has played some lovely solos over the years. He has a good ear for melody, and it shows in his solos.


Can't stand it when it's all about "shredding" mega fast and tapping all over the shop just to show that you can. (I probably say this because I'm rubbish at it)

Agree with Otta - has to be one from my childhood - Brian May's solo on Brighton Rock.


I know he's done it to death since (and that he appears to have become a knob), that he relies on echo-tricks too much and that it's all a bit prog-rock at times (well it was 1974) but I saw them live back then and the first incarnation of this solo live was memorable.


That and any of the mini-solos by Wilko Johnson either Dr Feelgood (Back In The Night) or after.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
