This should waste an hour or so of your time - here are ten of my favorite guitar solos...

Eric Johnson "Cliffs of Dover"	David Gilmour "Comfortably Numb"
Eddie Van Halen "Eruption"	Neil Zaza "I'm Alright"
Joe Satriani "Satch Boogie"	Alex Lifeson (Rush) "La Villa Strangiato"
Stevie Ray Vaughn "Voodoo Chile"	Paul Gilbert "Scarified"
Steve Morse "Tumeni Notes"	Yngwie Malmsteen "Evil Eye"

Note: Few people know about Neil Zaza, which is too bad - as his live video shows, he's seriously underrated as a guitarist. By the way, although all of these solos are good, "Tumeni Notes" is downright impossible to play. (For me, anyway.)

Honorable Mentions

I should call out some Honorable Mentions; I think that Stevie Ray Vaughn's cover of Hendrix's "Voodoo Chile" is is arguably better than Jimi's original version, but I still like the original. Also, it was a toss-up between Paul Gilbert's "Hurry Up" and "Scarified" in the original list.

Jimi Hendrix "Voodoo Chile"	Randy Rhoads (Ozzy) "Crazy Train"
Rik Emmett (Triumph) "Fight the Good Fight"	Paul Gilbert "Hurry Up"

Of course, I could go on and on about other guitar solos by other guitar players, and there are several guitarists who were somewhat inadvertently skipped in my list. (e.g. Gary Hoey, Vernon Reid, etc.) But that being said, the original list comprises some of my all-time favorite solos.
