What are the best drum or guitar solos of all time.

I think it's real hard to choose a 'best' tho, guitar solo wise it's have to be something by either Waters, Gilmour, Hendrix or Clapton
Drums would have to be Reni from the stone roses
something with better sound, one of the funkiest drummers around
best bits around 4.40 mins

The movie you mentioned with the karate kid ,,,, you high ?
LMAO!!! I thought you meant one of the Clapton's crossroads guitar festivals! Those are on dvd......Now HERE'S a good way to see some of the worlds best guitarists in one place......yet many more exist!

Old, old school blues - disk 2 - 2013. Taj Mahal and Keb Moe doing the old Son Seals tune, "Walk'in Blues" (Taj says that Son taught it to Robert Johnson - RJ made it famous) and Taj's "Diving Duck Blues". Kinda special for me as you listen to 2 old 30's steel bodies playing in harmony. nothing like a National, and a Dobro playing on the same stage at the same time!

Hmmm....
I'll touch a few genres, but here goes my list, in no specific order;
Hendrix - Woodstock improvisation
Randy Rhoads (ozzy) - Mr. Crowley
Van Halen - Hot for teacher or eruption, too close
Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising force
Jason Becker - Attitudes
SRV - Little wing
Muhammed Suicmez (Necrophagist) - Advanced corpse tumor
Dimebag (Pantera) - Floods
Ryan Knight (Arsis, TBDM) - Stygiophobic.

Many won't know who most of these people are, but there aren't many better solos out there.
Also, a girl named Tina S in France can shred any one of these dudes under the table (except healthy Becker). Look her up.

Just because we're stoners doesn't mean we need to be unorganized. This thread is clearly in the wrong sub-forum, just pointing that out.

It'd be like you or @RM3 going to Newbie Central to post your latest harvest it just isn't appropriate for the forum being used.

Mmm, Malmsteen...that brings up Nuno Bettencourt - Former house player/rep for Washburn was directly tied to the N2 and N3. It's said the the prototypes were built just for him....Most likely best known for the N4.
He's played with many folks and best not forget Extreme!....Wasn't he married to the Baby Animals lead singer ,, um ,, susan something Italian De Marconi or something like that?

Anyway, he reminds me of Malmsteen sometimes (He man woman haters club - Pornograffiti from Extreme)

Lest we not forget!
WALTER BECKER from Steely Dan! DAMN fine jazz guitar!
Al Di Meola, Paco de Lucía and John McLaughlin did an outstanding Latin jazz album together!

Had to bring those up as you said "genres"
