Recently I have been purchasing CDs t contain great guitar solos... IMO
Rick Derringer's solo on "Back in the USA" is worthy of a "great guitar solo of all time label" What are your favorite guitar solos??

Need you so bad - Fleetwood Mac.

Pat Hare on Cotton Crop Blues....Ya could shave to that one...

Machine Gun - Jimi Hendrix

Burn - Rithcie Blackmore

The Song Remains The Same - Jimmy Page

Highway 61 Revisited & Bonie Maronie - Johnny Winter (from Captured Live)

I really like Duane's in Statesboro Blues. For the Stones, it's awfully hard to beat the back-to-back Keith and Mick T. on Sympathy. For just a great combination of passion and technique: It's My Own Fault by Johnny Winter.

I know I'm forgetting a bunch of worthy ones, but y'all will remember..

Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

Tom Verlaine Marquee Moon

John Frusciante (RHCP)-Wet Sand...

Mick Ronson - Width of a Circle ( Live Spiders from Mars )

All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix

Lounge Lizard - Ian Hunter (Mick Ronson solo)
Death Trip - Iggy & the Stooges (James Williamson)
I Heard Her Call My Name - Velvet Underground (Lou Reed)
Little Red Lights - Todd Rundgren (Todd)

Guitar solo heaven:
Sway/gimme Shelter (live) -MT
Voodoo Chile , -and yes, Machine Gun (live) -Jimi Hendrix
Rat Tomago - Zappa
Wipping Post-Allman Bros.
Hotel California-Eagles
And of course any song performed live by Prince...
