My fave guitar solo has to be the one in Blaze of Glory by Jeff Beck...
His technique is flawless...Sambora can play the notes but just can't play it the same way Beck does.

Ostrom

Riffs: Money for nothing, black night, whole lotta rosie, sweet emotion, iron man. Solos: Blackmore's solos in lazy and highway star, kirks solo in fade to black, sultans of swing, and home sweet home (motley crue - nothing spectacular but i just love it)
