Dio ala Vivian Campbell definitely rocked. I was never able to play his faster shit.

 

i can barely play with myself, this shite just gets me up the evil pitches.

I didn't see either solo from La Grange, or Tush. They are high on my list, as is the outro solo on "Gimme all Your Lovin".

 

Neal Schon has some tasty solos - if you can separate them from the 80's glitz rock. Stone in Love, something off Infinity.

 

schenker, baby!

I'm definitely late to this party, so apologies if anyone has already touted Mark Knopfler. He's got a lot of greats, imo, but one particular favorite is 'It never rains' at the end of 'Love Over Gold'. I couldn't find video of a performance, so this will have to do.

 

 

The solo is not super technical (even I hacked out a lot of it once), but it is sweet to hear him play it. Its a great song, and the solo fits perfectly.

I've never been a fan of solos with crazy cranked gain creamy tone. There's no dynamics or messing with the sounds beyond feedback and pinch harmonics. They might as well be playing a keyboard with a pitch bend knob. Turn down the gain a bit and you've got to work for your hammer-ons and every nuance comes through.

 

Bob Mould has had some cool solos.

 

As far as dual guitar solos go some of the Lee Rinaldo/ Thurston Moore noise fests were amazing to my ear. Especially considering they were usually in different tunings.

 

J Mascis was always a guitar hero of mine. I never got to see him with Dinosaur Jr. but he opened for Built to Spill one year solo acoustic and ripped it up with a Electro Harmonix 16sec delay. Speaking of Built to Spill Doug Martsh knows his way around a blues rock jam.
