Re: Numb voted best guitar solo

I think these 2 are the best solos on that list:

Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven
Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower

They have a lot energy, are of an appropriate length for the tune and and raise the song to a new level. Some of the other solos are also solid, but imho are too long and/or sound too mechanical, (like they were worked out before the recording or pieced together by editing) and/or do not take the song to the next level. Using Skynyrd as an example, I think the (1st) solo on Sweet Home Alabama contributes much more to the tune than the very lengthy solo(s) at the end of Freebird.
