Guitar Solos

There are so many fantastic solos out there that I tend to slowly cycle thru a list of (I think) hundreds. Of late, these have been the "Go To" electric guitar solos for me:

George Harrison - "Something"
Billy Gibbons - "Sharp Dressed Man "
SRV - "Pride and Joy"
Todd Rundgren - "Unloved Children" (also possible that it's Jesse Gress who takes the solo on recent versions. Both are great.)
Richard Thompson - "Calvary Cross"
David Hidalgo (Los Lobos) - "Bertha"
Peter Green (Fleetwood Mac) - "Man of the World"
Lindsey Buckingham (Fleetwood Mac) - "Come"
Rusty Anderson (Paul MacCartney's lead guitarist, in this case performing on a record by P. Hux) - "Mile High Fan"

All of the above players have numerous other solos that I love - I just picked the one that I seem to be going back to most often these days. Many of the above solos are available in multiple live variations. A few probably make the list because I'm learning to play them at the moment.

A recent addition for blues-rock types is the CD called "Todd Rundgren's Johnson". It's a disc of Robert Johnson covers and Todd simply smokes on this one. He hasn't been doing this kind of stuff since The Nazz and the long lay off seems to have really stoked the intensity. He plays it reasonably straight (other than a very modern lead tone) but makes the familiar material entirely his own.
