It could be melodic or rhytmic.

Metallica has songs with better solos, such as Fade to Black.

I'm not really that fond of MOP's solo to begin with. So, that would be a good sized list.

I'm not really a huge Dream Theater fan but my favorite solo might be the tail end of Octavarium, that or Cynic's How Could I?

Meh my opinion will diregarded anyway.... but whatever.

Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9GKFZ-Slqk - Go to 4:06. It lasts almost 2 minutes.

I dont even know if that's close to what music the band you mentioned plays but its just a very big solo that I like.

I'm gonna be a loser and say Stairway to Heaven. Or Ten Years Gone. Or Achilles Last Stand.

Just about any Zeppelin song with a solo longer than 20 seconds.

HERE IS THE THREADKILLER

Megadeth - TORNADO OF SOULS (jst the solo)

shoot, all of megadeth's solo's are better than metallica's. one of metallica's best solo's is ride the lightning, why? because its dave's solo. (and song)

imo Metallicas best solo is The Unforgiven. Megadeths Tornados Of Souls kills anything by Metallica. Check out Spastic Ink, lol.

their is only one thing that might be able to bring down the mighty tornado

and thats this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vS6syL0-jM

if that was too extreme and showoffy, then the solo's in the middle of thins song will do it.

Dude, Master of Puppets is one of Kirk Hammett's weakest solos. And I don't mean the slow interlude, that part's okay, but the fast solo in that song exemplifies everything that people hate about his playing. It has no feeling, it's not creative and it's not very memorable.

Kirk's played some good solos; Blackened, Ride the lightning, The Unforgiven (Screw off black album haters, the solo in it was one of his best) to name a few, but Master of Puppets is definitely not one of them.

I never thought that puppets had that great of a solo. I always thought it was the opening riff that made that song stand out.

To each his own. I like it because its soothing and relaxing. Not those metal solos where they play loud and the same notes.

You could say the same about freebrird but like i said its my opinion.

So what if its cliche. They must be good if its considered cliche.....

I'm a lefty, and yes i think jimi hendrix is a very good guitarist (he plays an upside down right handed guitar) but there are alot of good guitarists so i dont think 1 person can be the "best ever"
