They left out Luther Perkins and Chet Atkins completely.

Very nice. Can’t believe they left out David Gilmour, but at least Knopfler was in there.

He should have started with “Rock around the Clock,” considered by many to be the first “true” guitar solo on a hit song.

He left out GFR.

Bit he provided musical credence (who he also left out) to the fact rock/pop/whatever-you-want-to-call-it music in the 90’s to present sucked (and continues to do so).

Any list that doesn't have Brian Setzer in the top ten was put together by ignorant a-holes.

Did I miss where he did Stevie Ray Vaughan? Or are they just stupid? (maybe he’s just not a good enough guitarist to play SRV...)

Most of those were just riffs.

anyway...

I’ve always been partial to Frank Zappa’a solo on Apostrophe’s “Uncle Remus”.

Thanks for the link - cool history.

One could do 40 years of guitar solos just with Alex Lifeson.

Thanks NSD...I like all of these !!!.....I know it doesn't count here but in the movie “Crossroads” the Ralph Maccio [sp?] played a classical piece as a rock anthem which I like very much...

Stevie Ray, Lonnie Mack, others going all the way back to the first solo, Mother Maybelle Carter’s Wildwood Flower. This was a bit lame..
