Some decent guitar bits in this (without the face).

Not sure it was quite a solo because there was other stuff going on at the same time.

Sounds like it was a great gig.

Superb! He walked away from Thin Lizzy because he couldn't handle the fame and recognition and wanted a life of obscurity. No sooner had he done that than he accidentally had a number 1 hit record!

Here is Clapton telling the story of when first he heard the playing of Duane 'Skydog' Allman - I'd find it hard to pin it down to one 'favourite' but this is a great listen.

This lady can play a bit. Love watching her play,even though she seems to have stopped uploading now.

No one going for any of the great shredders, Vinnie Moore, Joe Satriani, etc?

Not really into shredders, but one of my guilty pleasures is an occasional foray into the JTC channel on YouTube where some of the hottest guitar players on the planet reside. Guthrie Govan is probably one of the best. I kind of like him when he plays a bit more bluesy and soulful as per the video below. But there are loads of pickers on that channel who are immense.

The short solo at the end of Queen's We Will Rock You is pure no nonsense perfection.

Zappa's Watermelon (already posted).. is pure lots of nonsense perfection, but this particular version of What's New in Baltimore is one of my favourite Zappa solos (skip past the noodly nonsense to 1min 45 seconds)

Really, I thought he was Dutch.

 

[Drago]

I thought he was a West Country boy?

This is absolutely stunning from start to finish

 

[Yellow Fang]

Not that I think it was the best part of the song, I liked the piano playing and the sheer bonkerish of the song, but the guitar sob starting about 3:00 was good, played by Dave Gilmour I believe.

At least it was better than her dancing.

Ricky Skaggs opening 'Country Boy'?
