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.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
