I saw him at Ronnie Scotts recently. Fabulous.

What I did once was put this on repeat.

Can't believe there's no SRV yet.
Could pick dozens from him, but one of my favourites. Texas Flood, live.

As a small aside, I quite enjoy this guy's videos.

Think you'll find I listed SRV's Texas Flood on the previous page - good choice

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Little Wing yet - always pops up in these threads!

I was supposed to go........

[Cantaloupe]

Cream's blistering version of Crossroads on Wheels Of Fire.

Clapton doesn't fluff a note, no studio overdubs or editing.

A true classic.

[Kakopetria]

From the John Mayall album, Live from Austin,TX.
Some outstanding playing by Coco Montoya on The Bear.

[cherryowen]

A pre-concert sound check, Stevie Ray style.........

Hat tip to PH'er Kinky for the next one:-

Gary Moore lets loose

And one of the finer classic rock solos ever recorded. This studio version is, for me, the best version (Blackmore at his inventive and fiery best):-

Child In Time

[siovey]

3 of my favourites that immediately spring to mind

Powerslave - Iron Maiden
Fade to Black (end solo) - Metallica
Free bird- Lynard Skynard

Always loved the solo on ‘ I could never take the place of your man’ fits so so perfectly with the song.

Rush - La Villa Strangiato

It’s pretty good.
A friend of mine was on cello for that gig.

Perhaps I'm just too old. There are some glaring omissions from these three pages.

May I mention a certain Mr Hendrix? Not Face Melting, so obviously O/T, but how about this effort on an out of tune 12 string guitar picked up as a prop on a photo session?

And, I don't know where to start with Jeff Beck.
