Sweet Child o mine
'child in time' deep purple in rock. waaaay ahead of its time, this album had a [nearly] similar effect on me as VH1. actually blackmore rips it up all the way in that album. nothing came close back then in 69/70.
Jeff Healey was an amazing guitarist and his rendition of 'while my guitar gently weeps' is fantastic.I'm sure I'm forgetting something but...
"Comfortably Numb"- It does everything it is supposed to do. Absolute perfection.
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps"- Possibly the best chord progression to solo over ever! Youtube it, and you will find an amazing number of famous guitarists who have covered it over the years. I think Jeff Healey is my favorite.... I think.
"Blackbird"- Alter Bridge. Check my profile pic....
"Sultans of Swing"- Mark Knopfler bought a guitar my wife was about to buy for me. Despite my disappointment, this solo (and song) is a technical masterpiece.
"No More Tears"- Zakk at his finest. Combines the emotion of Gilmour with the incendiary stylings of Blackmore.
"See The Light"- If I could have the skills of any guitar player, it would probably be Jeff Healey.
"Mr. Crowley"- Randy Rhodes revolutionized metal, and did it all with sucky tone.
Hello (Lionel Richie). No, I'm not kidding! So simple, so effective.
Agreed - that is a fantastic solo.- Steve Lukather: [snip] the 2nd solo going all out in Lionel Richie's "Running with the night" (long version), ...
LOL. I don't care if it gets talked about to death, it IS an amazing solo.David Gilmour "Comfortably Numb": because others like it and you're not taken serious if you don't list it ;-).
