Kimmo’s top 14 tasty guitar solos
by Kimmo
First thing I must stress is these songs are not in any order. Though I managed to narrow these songs down to 14 I don’t think I could ever in any stretch of the imagination list them in order, and on another day I may of put them a little bit differently. All though they are all great songs it is not the only reason for picking them.
The main reason was the solos, and when you read this particular list remember that all guitar solos don’t have to be loud and fast. No doubt it's hard to do, but when it comes down to it it’s about hitting the right notes and to me these songs do that the best.
Straight away when I put these songs down on paper I realized that every song was that little bit different and I think that’s the key to a good best of list. Personally I could sit down at any time of any day and totally enjoy ever second of it.
The way these song have changed my taste in music over the years is phenomenal. Some of these tracks I grew up with and some I just picked up along the way. So, If you are as pickie with music as I am, then there should be something in there for every one.
• Like A Hurricane: Neil Young
• Beat It: Michael Jackson
• Another Brick In The Wall: Pink Floyd
• Good Old Fashion Lover Boy: Queen
• Stair Way To Heaven: Led Zeppelin
• Probably Me: Eric Clapton/Sting:
• Ground On Down: Ben Harper
• Old Love/unplugged: Eric Clapton
• Layla: Eric Clapton
• Gravity: John Mayer
• Heaven’s Here On Earth: Tracy Chapman
• Purple Haze: Jimmy Hendrix
• Destiny Blues: Eric Bib
• No Women No Cry: Bob Marley
John May playing at Eric Clapton's Crossroads festival. the best version of Gravity I have ever seen
