Surely you’ve noticed Rolling Stone’s appreciation for guitarists lately: We’ve covered Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival, gazed lovingly at images of badass hair-metal axes and examined Slash’s ability to play Guitar Hero. So let’s get down to business here: We want a list of the greatest guitar solos of all time. Everyone from classic rockers to jam bands to Nineties alt-rockers to metalheads has contributed a rippin’ solo to our rock canon. Fork over your nominations (and disagree with ours) starting right now.
- “One” – Metallica
- “Freebird” – Lynyrd Skynyrd
- “November Rain” – Guns N’ Roses
- “Comfortably Numb” – Pink Floyd
