If I just go off the top of my head, for solo as part of a song, one that stands out is Gary Moore with Phil Lynott “Out in the Fields”, kinda has it all: great build up and resolve, tricky to replicate, melodic but wild, compliments the song…

I bought “Run For Cover” back in 85 or 86, just for that song. The whole cd’s great.
George Lynch was a favorite, also. I’m not afraid to say that I liked Dokken.
All of Eric Johnson’s stuff is amazing.[/quote]
Good choices…
There are a ton of fantastic guitar player alive and dead, mentioned and not mention in this thread. I always like to give some attention to guys who are really under appreciated. Case in point… Roy Buchanan…
To take a song like hey joe… already done by an utter legend and somehow make it better… is just amazing. If you don’t know anything about Roy Buchanan, check him out… incredible player and an amazing story.
figured I’d post a couple on here as well from a couple of my favorite bands that make some of the best progressive metal out there!
Pagan’s Mind - Shine Eternally
-starts at the 4:58 mark, just love the tone and how Jorn makes that guitar soar!
Circus Maximus - Arrival of Love
-definitely a bit of shred in it but it fits the solo perfectly, love the phrasing here!
Pagan’s Mind - Coming Home
-really the whole song but the first 1:19 is just EPIC!
