What's your favorite guitar solo?

For me, it's a toss-up. Either the guitar solo on 'The Great Curve" by the Talking Heads (which I believe is actually played by nonTalking Heads member Adrian Belew) or Wall of Voodoo's "Ring of Fire."

I can't include EVH, Satch, Vai, Slash, Nuno, Petrucci, SRV in the mix.. but here's mine:

DM - Enjoy the Silence (Majestic guitar solo)
Personal Jesus (Simple blues riff)
Duran duran - Ordinary world (Pop-full hooks)
Echo and the Bunnymen - Lips like Sugar (Surf-alike sound)
The Cure - Love song (Hunting solo's)
Just like heaven (Goth guitar delay?)
Morrissey - Suedehead (Intro solo)
The Smiths - How soon is now (vibratto tremelo slide)
Joy Division - Love will tear us apart (Bass line)
Aztec Camera - Somewhere in my heart (Van halen alike solo)
U2 - New year's day (Bass line intro w/ blazing guitar solo)
Pride (Rattle and strum delaaay)
Gene loves Jezebel - Jealous (Kinda metal?)
20 KHZ (Singing along riff n' solo)
Billy Idol - Dancing w/ myself (Punk w/ dancing guitar solo)
Waterboys - Pan within (Celtic guitar solo)




It simplicity best
Or simply the easiest
