Only time for a few at the moment, I'll post more later:

Dogs - (IMO best damn solo Gilmour ever played) from 5:33 - 6:50

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiRw_Jnhs0A[/youtube]

Soma - (IMO best damn solo Billy ever played) from 4:24 to the end

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60J6HlvfePM[/youtube]

While My Guitar Gently Weeps - A lot of people don't know that Harrison had Clapton play the solo on this one (IMO best solo Clapton ever played) from 1:56 - 2:31

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bdc88m2XW0[/youtube]

Paranoid - props for being the first damn time anyone ever heard a ring modulator in rock music: from 1:23 - 1:46

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEuJQWgAytY[/youtube]

I second Soma and Paranoid. Pretty much any guitar solo on The Smashing Pumpkins' Pisces Iscariot album makes me wanna play guitar. Here's the ever long starla:

Violent Femmes! anyone who plays bass should listen to Violent Femmes!

My favorite song is "Promise." kick ass stuff.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne2V96hGGzQ[/youtube]

Does this count?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuJhTGq07nk[/youtube]


Getting to more "orthodox" choices, I have to pick put a few Manic Street Preachers solos:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DUcoZba6cI[/youtube]

AWESOME song anyway, the outro solo kicks in at 3:50.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6In7XeAV0I[/youtube]

It only dawned on me many years later that this has more than a few similarities to "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. Great playing by James Dean Bradfield though.





And more recently:

No real "Solo" as such here, but some cool harmonics going on here.

And finally, the band that made me pick up a guitar in the first place:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cJauX_q6wI[/youtube]

Great cameo by Paul Weller here.

This is my favorite solo guitar...

I will look for actual solos shortly.
