Satriani - Crushing Day

I should also add that I was blessed to see Satriani play this song live...it was by far one of the greatest moments in my musical history.

Gilmour = best guitarist alive

 

[Pancakes]

No, there are better guitarists, as far as technicality and complexity go, but I've yet to hear anyone I like more than him

Oh, Gilmour is by far my favorite guitarist, but I wouldn't call him the best.

'Another Dimension' by John Petrucci. I can't stop listening to it. It almost sounds like a classical spanish guitar... Very cool.

Opeth - The Forest of October (6:30 upwards)

Dream Theater - Ytsejam

 

[Arch]

The two solos to "December Flower" by In Flames, done by a non-In Flames band member.

 

[Static]

I personally feel the best solo ever recorded, EVER, is the one that goes from 41:50 of Light of Day, Day of Darkness. Its REALLY long, around 2 minutes or so, and its simply OR-FUCKING-GASMIC!!

That last note, when it goes...WAHHHHHHHH in an incredibly high pitch just fucking rules.

 

[S4R]

Chuck another one up there for the Comfortably Numb solo.

 

[Static]

Its great but the Money solo owns it.

 

[S4R]

Money is a very close #2 to my ears.

 

[Static]

Money is a very close #2 to my ears.

I've always thought its the best, but no one ever agrees...

My list for PF solo's is as follows -

1. Money solo
2. Shine on You Crazy Diamond Solo (the one that gets going in the second 'half' of the song.
3. Comfortably Numb solo
4. High Hopes solo (although many PF fans don't seem to appreciate The Division Bell I still feel that the solo that finishes this excellent song is one of Gilmour's best. Certainly the best one since Water's left. A classic)


That should do it.

 

[abyssofdreams]
