Heartbreaker- Led Zeppelin
"'Heartbreaker' had the biggest impact on me as a youth. It was defiant, bold, and edgier than hell. It really is the definitive rock guitar solo."
--Steve Vai
Live version of the solo is better.

Voodoo Child (Slight Return)
Stone Free
Bold as Love
At least 50% of all hendrix songs t.b.h.f.a.m
"I remember walking through the hallway of our house and hearing ‘Heartbreaker’ coming out of her room and the world stopped. I was stunned because it struck such a nerve and had so much energy. Then when the solo came on I discovered another dimension of music."
I find most guitar soli to be horribly out of place no matter how good they are
so some rare exceptions :
Metallica - One
Pantera - Floods
Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven

Freewill
"I'll be honest: Jimi didn't get me to pick up the guitar. The defining moment for me to start playing was when I heard Led Zeppelin's 'Heartbreaker'."
