Best guitar solo = Rocky Top by Chet Atkins (I don't think even Stevie Ray could do that).Yeh, and while it's not a "solo", Al Dimeola and Les Paul doin' "Spanish Eyes"....

As a picker who has studied many styles, and played country, jazz, pop, rock, bluegrass, folk and whatever else they'd pay me for, I can agree about the amazing ability of Chet Atkins. I was lucky enough to meet Chet, and spend an afternoon with him once. We were just pickin' when he called in and introduced to us a young man who HE said was the best......Jerry Reed. Couldn't argue with him.....Reed was incredibly creative.
