KnightLite Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 I made a topic on this once, but it didn't go the direction i wanted it to. I'm looking for you opinion on the greatest instrumental solo ever. No other instruments, just 1 musicial doin his thing on his own instrument. Don't name any songs like stairway to heaven or Hotel California, because they are not solo's My current top 2 are: Piano thing - Muse Eruption - Van Halen you should check them out. - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assassin_696 Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Well, it's kinda classical but i always thought "The Heart Asks Pleasure First" from The Piano by Michael Nyman was a brilliant piano piece.

Sunwarriord Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 I think he's talking when the whole song is a solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stely Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 The guitar solo in Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin is awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azvareth Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 most anything by joe satriani :P Word. Also, Stratofortress and Holy Solos by Stratovarius are one of those songs I'll never grow tired of. 'For The Love Of God' by Steve Vai is definitely worth mentioning as well.

Led-Zeppelin Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 John Henry Bonhams Moby D!ck, any version, spans from 10 mins to 20+ mins of him just going nuts on the drums. At one part he puts down his drum sticks and just starts hitting them with his hands, haha awesome. Jimmy Pages Heartbreaker, I know the whole thing isn't a guitar solo but hes just jamming for about three minutes. And I'll repeat another one again, Eddie Van Halens Eruption, pretty awesome, I know a girl that can play that. :| (by the way, I've heard that Van Halen are going to do the next "Rock Star INXS" thing, I hope not, but true or false?).

Scruffy5389 Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Ever heard of Eric Johnson? No? Me neither, until a few days ago, when I heard "Cliffs of Dover." It's not an absolute solo, because there are drums playing underneath him, but mostly, it's just him on guitar doin his thing, and its pretty freickin awesome :D Find it and listen to it if you can.

Rizla Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I don't know why so many people chose Eruption. Yes it's impressive, but it's all tapping - once you get down the rythym it's easy. I'm not sure i can really pick out what i think is the best solo ever, although if i did it would probably be in a Pantera song. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.
