WHERE THE F*** IZ HERMAN LEE??? HE`S THE MOST RAPID AND TALENTED GUITARIST OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!
How come “While my guitar gently weeps” didn’t make this list? That was a great solo!!
Ooops sorry I found it!!!
sonic youth – diamanond sea. Thurston moor and lee ranaldo, plays realy good feed back guitar solo
dude, if you made this list in this order, you obviously do not know a damn thing about guitar.jimmy page is my idol, and he’s my inspiration to play guitar. him and hendrix. but you made this list based on the song, not the guitar solo. remake it and actually listen to the guitar solo man!
How on earth Richie´s axe on Tarot Woman didn´t make on to this so called chart I´ll never know. Not to Mention Jake E Lee´s almost supernatural job on Bark at the Moon + a handfull of others that comes to mind right of the bat.
dude you need to listen to more music, nirvana’s guitar solo’s r so simple compared to jimipage or eric clapton or pantara dude, metallica shud be on here more so should creed/alter bridge mike tremonti or whatever his name is he is a god on ther guitar. PS i know theres alot of typos im just too… lazy… or the Tool guy or FKN panic attack by dreamtheater that guitar solo makes me orgasm.
wtf. Man where is megadeth’s holy wars and tornado of souls or any fucking godammit megadeth song. This list sucks.
where gary moore “parisienne walkways” ? got nice solo too…
yah whoever made this list should have called it todays top 100 cleshay guitar solos lmfao.. why in the world would it not have any Robert Johnson. along with some of the others that wher forgot simply because they wher not on mtv. this is a list of guitarists who learned from listening to the best.. most of those guys are still alive. what did u make this list from the songs u downloaded for guitar hero? now do 1 for real guitar!!!
what about Megadeth? Anthrax? Slayer? Judas Priest? Scorpions? Saxon? Kansas, Journey, Marillion, Motörhead, Threshold, Shadowland, Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, Helloween, Rhapsody of Fire, DGM, Empyrios, Vanden Plas, Circus Maximus, Rainbow, Pagan’s Mind, Winds, Spheric Universe Experience, Queensrÿche, Edguy, Gamma Ray, Rata Blanca, Adagio, In Flames, Seventh Wonder, Metal Church, Armored Saint, Def Leppard, Fates Warning, Mötley Crüe, Poison, Children Of Bodom, Andromeda, Boston, Revolution Renaissance, Timo Tolkki, Evergrey, Narnia, Giant, Ratt, Bon Jovi, Rex Carroll, Whitecross, Stryper, Petra, Rez, Deliverance, Holy Soldier, White Heart, Guardian, Bride, Bloodgood, Dio, Mr. Big, Racer X, Skid Row, Black Label Society, Symphony X, Iced Earth, Orphaned Land, Magnitude 9, Cacophony, Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Michael Angelo Batio??? any of these have better solos than cobain, fuck overrated nirvana
What about Jason Becker and Marty Friedman ???
what about megadeth and slayer?
metallica \m/ yeah … one!!!
I dont understand how Cinnamon Girl is in top 100… The solo is practically one note.
