100 Greatest Guitar Solos (Greatest Solos of All time w/ tablature)
Tuesday, January 30th, 2007Every guitarist has opinions on what some of the greatest recorded guitar solos are. While there are many that are commonly regarded as "great", there are lots of others that don’t get as much attention. Not too long ago, the editors of GUITAR WORLD magazine put together a reader’s poll, to find out what their readers considered to be the best guitar solos of all time. The results surely reflect the magazine’s demographic (no jazz guitar solos, for example), but no one can argue the following 100 selections boast some great guitar work.
What follows is the list of all 100 songs selected, listed with the guitarist who played the solo, the band who released the album, and the album name. Due to legal concerns, the tablature originally accompanying this article has been removed.
