Have you tried Jimi Hendrix's Valleys of Neptune? Some very good new (to me) solos on there.

I've always been a huge Knopfler fan and Telegraph Road is one of my favourite pieces of music (live version's best).

Not very 'rocky', but the guitar solo a couple of minutes in, and again the outro need to be played LOUD...

A... May... Ziiiinnnnngggggggg!

Legend has it that the guitarist who did that solo was so out of his head when he recorded it, he took ages to "learn" it afterwards when he had to play it live.

Phantom of the Opera by Iron Maiden can only be played loud.

And [url= http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ocrue#p/u/11/kO8G-Tmhefk ]this guy's [/url] version is pretty cool. Check out his other videos's and weep with jealousy if (like me) you have any illusions that you can play guitar.

Paul Gilbert (Mr Big and RacerX). Used to play solos with cordless drill etc. But for ridiculous guitar solo, try:

from about 3:20 in - excellent despite crap sound quality - includes playing using his teeth...

I've always been a huge Knopfler fan and Telegraph Road is one of my favourite pieces of music (live version's best).

Actually I prefer the outro on the album version. I really like the way the focus shifts between the various instruments, rather than just being focused on the guitar. The live version of Sultans of Swing is very nice though.

The solo in the Red Hot Chili Pepper's Can't Stop may only be 7 notes long but it is very good indeed.

Others I really like include Hysteria by Muse, Long Snake Moan by PJ Harvey, Someday I Will Treat You Good by Sparklehorse and Lakini's Juice by Live.

Having a bit of a rock revival myself - and booked in for download for the first time in 17 years - might be more of a mid life crisis than a rock revival.

Anyway - zack wildes Black label society - All for you has a pretty good mix of gut busting riff and blistering solo.

That and the chickenfoot album

boght the new remaster of heaven and hell too - it's good but the recording level is a bit quiet, so on the mp3 player it's a struggle to get loud enough - RIP RJD

Every track on "L" from Steve Hillage. Thats for when I feel a bit of a hippy and want rattle my beads. Now when I have washed the sheets back to white, put on my pointy hat and put as match to the cross it can only be Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Rush opened with the intro to "Spirit of Radio" at the Wembly arena a few years ago. A perfect choice - see them fingers move!

Most of Neil Young's Crazy Horse stuff. I love that simple but very loud and overdriven stuff.

I also have to turn up the volume every time for the bit at the end of The Beatles Abbey Road, the bit the Beastie Boys sampled.

Some good ones here; +1 QOTSA [i]No One Knows[/i], Apollo 440 [i]Ain't Talkin' About Dub[/i], to which I'd add Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers [i]American Girl[/i], and Nils Lofgren [i]Night Fades Away[/i].
LOVE those two songs, especially [i]Night Fades Away[/i], Lofgren gets those amazing second harmonics which whistle on certain notes, never fails to have me wacking the volume right up and singing 'til my voice cracks. On my own, of course. :mrgreen:
