"You can't talk about guitar solos without mentioning eruption" Proceeds to not mention eruption

As a guitarist, I think this is one of the worst ''Greatest Guitar Solos'' lists.

Slash’s outro solo on “Paradise City” is insane, and bears mentioning.

I wish you could give us more than 4 seconds of the solo to truly appreciate it.

This list is most definitely missing the awesome solo of Prince slaying his guitar during the 2004 Rock n Roll Hall of Fame video. His unique style, iconic contribution, and damn good riff during “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” is ultimate Prime Prince at his best! He’s also on stage with many other great and iconic guitarists...great video!

Guns n Roses made me fall in love with Rock when I was a pre teen. I’ll always love Slash and GNR. November rain is a beautiful song.
Edit- really happy to see 2 GNR songs on here ❤️
