I'll start with Led Zeppelin. Jimmy Page showed in “Stairway To Heaven” how he is able to handle a two-fingered guitar. He masterfully uses various techniques, adding elements of blues and folk. The result was a very memorable two-minute solo. We're listening.

David Gilmour's guitar sounds different in Pink Floyd's “Comfortably Numb". His solo seems to consist of two parts – quite calm at the beginning, it becomes more intense in the second half, gaining dynamics and power.

The Eagles' ”Hotel California" stands apart from them. If there's anything better than a guitar solo, it's a two-guitar solo, as demonstrated by Don Felder and Joe Walsh. Felder leads his part smoothly and melodically, and Walsh adds energy by playing not only with his hands, but with his whole body.

Another unforgettable double solo, with which Lynyrd Skynyrd musicians Allen Collins and Gary Rossington entered rock history, is heard in the song “Free Bird”. Unlike Felder and Walsh, Allen and Gary's solo is fast, passionate, emotionally intense, and the audience just goes crazy from it.

And for dessert, my favorite dish is a solo by Dire Straits frontman Mark Knopfler in the song “The Sultans of Swing”. Surprisingly, you can often find the opinion on the web that Mark is supposedly a mediocre guitarist. Listening to what he does in the Sultans, it's hard to believe.

Of course, these are not all great guitar solos. There are many others, but more about them next time...
