[MLUG - DISCUSSION] 100 Greatest Guitar Solos

["Jonathan King" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

OK, so having fought about the tax system, CEO salaries and what to do
with my Subaru, let's do something really contentious: all-time
greatest (rock) guitar solos.  Specifically, one can pick apart this
especially inane list:

So there are some really good ones on here, some of the omissions
are...stunning. For example: no Santana at all. No Frank Zappa at all.
Unless I missed something, Steve Howe was shut out. Brian May does
appear on the list, but for a solot that I don't actually think was
one of his top five. Eric Clapton appears, including one of his
Beatles' solos, but that solo isn't the one he did for "Something",
which was the finest Eric Clapton song the Beatles ever wrote.

I could go on, but I'll let Mike Miller and Vern rant about this for awhile. :-)
