Frank Zappa is a loonie BTW.
Yeh, but he was really great. I saw him in concert at Penn State back in '73. What a great concert! Still remember it till today.

I've been playing this game a lot lately. It has sure made me a lot more aware about guitars in music. I now often listen to just the guitar in a song rather than the song as a whole. I think the final track on Guitar Hero II is a really awesome masterpiece in the art of shredding: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird. Whenever I hear it, I get magically swooped away in the guitar solos. Purple Haze almost. ;P Do you know of a song with an awesome guitar solo that makes you all tingly inside? (Did I just say tingly inside? :~)
Actually there's no Shredding in Free Bird, just a very well done solo on basic blus pentatonic scale. so here's my list: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Tirerobe, cound't stand the weather etc etc Clapton - Crossroads, White room etc etc Jimi Hendrix - Woodoo Chile, purle haze, Foxey lady (live version) etc etc Van Halen - Mean Streets, Eruption Jeff Healey Band - See The Light (full album) - cover To Cover (full album) Gary Moore - Walking by Mysef, Still got the blues Santana - Europa, Oje como và, black magic woman etc etc Led Zeppelin - Heart Breaker Mark Knopfler - Sultans of Swing, tunnel of love Guns And Roses - sweet child of mine Eagles - Hotel California (you can laugh but I still think it's a remarcable solo) I don't know mutch 'bout "Guitar Heroes" (but I've been playing guitar for the last 20 years) and I supposed it's more focused on Solos rather than all around playing..so no AC/DC (a pitty)

I've a long list of guitar heroes, but here's a few Zal Cleminson[^] from SAHB David Wilcox[^]from well David Wilcox (see him live, he's absolutely stunning) George Thorogood[^]from The Destroyers Ron Wood[^] from The Faces and Rolling Stones. Ry Cooder[^] from so many bands. Roy Buchanan[^] who died way to young. :rose: Rory Gallagher[^] another who's passed on. :rose:

To be perfectly honest, the Freebird solo is pretty easy. It's amazingly repetitious. If you master one part, you have the entire thing. I learned to hate this solo because it's so boring to play. I'm not sure how it would translate to Guitar Hero, but it's very boring on a real guitar.

Well I thought the EVH's solo in MJ's "Beat It" was pretty cool. VH's "Jump" has a nice EVH solo. Yes's Trevor Rabin in "Owner of a Lonely Heart" Prince's solo in "When Doves Cry" Some of the work by Strunz and Farrah is pretty damn cool.

:laugh: I'm trying to score 100% on that one on hard. I'm up to 96% now! It's that ultrafast stuff in the end that keeps pushing me down. :( Trogdor on expert is just evil. :wtf: Also worth playing is Thunderhorse! :-D

Satch - Surfing with the Alien. Vai - The Audience Is Listening. Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
I don't know the first one, but you've got my 5 for the second two. :)

Satch = Joe Satriani - technically excellent guitarist, but possibly lacking in feeling?

That's why I picked Surfing. It's one of the few ones where he lets go and sounds like he's just having fun. It's not his most technically advanced track - it's just good honest shredding.

Probably something by Frank Zappa - Yo Mama, or King Kong (live versions, please!), the first half of Apostrophe (let's ignore the yellow snow lyrics for the moment :-)) Or I could probably find something off Birds of Fire by Mahavishnu Orchestra - John McLaughlin is soooo good. Or maybe Steve Hillage - I've always loved his sound, whether it's his solo albums or the ones he did with Gong. Or Jan Akkerman (Focus) My other, more recent, guitar hero would be Wata from Boris - it's not about technical excellence, but the aural textures she adds to the band's sound. Brilliant.

Here are a few more to check out. RATT -- Morning After. The Cascading triplets at the end have always gotten to me DLR -- Shy Boy. Billy Sheehan and Steve Vai really tear this one up. Winger -- Seventeen. The outro by Reb Beach has some serious flash. Ozzy -- Crazy Train. The late great Randy Rhodes blisters eardrums here. Dokken -- Mr. Scary. More of an instrumental than strictly a solo, but with more than 20 guitar tracks there is more than enough to satisfy. Jimmy Hendrix -- pick one. Van Halen -- again, pick one. To the guy who said that Joe Satriani lacks emotion in his play. Dead wrong. That man has great emotion in addition to his technical skill. The reason he's not more mainstream is that nearly all of his songs are instrumentals and that doesn't fit well into the record industry's formula for making them money. They want lyrics so they can market the music easier. Witness American Idol.
