Top 50 guitar solos of all time, and they missed Mason William's Classical Gas?

Somehow, that's just not right.

I prefer the "no orchestra" version. Nice fingerpicking. But if you want to count that as a solo, well, I'd put many of Leo Kottke's pieces as more interesting. Not deliberately overlooking Chet Atkins and many other fingerpickers.

For the "rock 'n roll" solos, I am partial to the various pieces selected by Fagen and Becker to make it onto the production recordings. The solos in "Gold Teeth II" give me pause, every time.
