MrsBerry Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Moby Dick - Led Zeppelin (John Boham, drums) and anyone by Neil Peart (Rush drummer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted July 4, 2004 Author Share Posted July 4, 2004 I love Led Zeppelin, but I don't particularly like the solo in Moby Dick. I think it's way too long. Especially The Song Remains The Same version. It's like, 10 minutes! :stunned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Peedston Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 yeah, that = :snore: here are my personal favorites: Guitar Dave Gilmour (from Pink Floyd) - "Time" Paul McCartney (from the Beatles) - "Taxman" (yes, Paul played that, not George) Drums Joe Morello (from the Dave Brubeck Quartet) - "Take Five" John McEntire and John Herndon (from Tortoise) - "Seneca" Piano Anybody who can play it - George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" (which I'm also going to nominate right now as "greatest song ever written") Again, anybody who can play it - Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 3 in D Minor Thelonius Monk - "'Round Midnight" Dave Brubeck - "Theme From Mr. Broadway" Billy Joel - "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" I'm going to have to stop with that one before I really get carried away. :lol: Saxophone Charlie Parker - "Night in Tunisia" (by Paparelli and Gillespie) John Coltrane - "Resolution" I think that's enough for now, as there's too many Miles Davis for me to go through before I can pick a favorite trumpet solo. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinned Alive Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 more guitar solos which I personally enjoy playing, and think deserve recognition: Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven (Jimmy Page) (I know it's a bit of a cliché to list this, but well, it's just brilliant) Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (David Gilmour) The Strokes - The Modern Age (Nick Valensi) Oasis - Champagne Supernova (Live, pre-2000) (Noel Gallagher) Radiohead - Just (Jonny Greenwood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valleyboy Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 even though it probably isnt considered a solo, i love the who's my generation bass line, cos theres a part where you can only hear the bass, its pretty sweet. alone together, by the strokes, has an awesome guitar solo by nick valensi, i really like it.

mycdplayerisbroke Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 the 'take it or leave it' solo really sucks nuts just kidding that's like my favorite one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Safe From Explosions Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 I love the solo from Time by Pink Floyd. I convinced my band to learn it just so I could hear it "live-ish"... There's a few other Pink Floyd ones that are really good, none of which I can think of at the moment... ;\... Haven't listened to a lot of PF for quite a while. I'll try to listen to some tonight as I'm sure David Gilmour did a lot of great solo's, particularly on The Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityandColour Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 aren't all the strokes solos sweet? :cool: Oh yes. I just noticed how sweet the solo in 'Alone Together,' is.
