    I used to love Lynyrd Skynyrd and I still think they're a good band...but Freebird isn't all that it's cracked up to be. I went to see them last year...I pretty much went for the Allmans though.

    I don't have a top 5 favrotie solos that are from studio albums. All of my favorite solos are those that are improvised. I love pretty much anything Trey plays. Frank Zappa is a good un' too. Shitload of others.

    I love the Solo in Lynyrd Skynyrd's Simple Man.... Its not extraordinarly great but without it the song just wouldnt have as much emotional power to it.

    Greatest Guitar Solos that no one gives a shit about...

    1. Deep Purple - Highway Star (the fastest guitar solo... ever)
    2. Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You (better soloing on this track than Stairway, I know I'm gonna get harrassed for that...)
    3. Pink Floyd - Astronomy Domine (Ummagumma version, Gilmour tears it up on this one)
    4. Yes - Close To The Edge (it's an 18 minute song, but the first 3 minutes are for Steve Howe)
    5. The Grateful Dead - Dire Wolf (Garcia's pedal steel soloing really makes the song)

    No contesting this one! Gilmour rules, damn I love when he's sitting down barefoot manipulating all of his effect knobs in the "live at pompei" video..one morning I was watching/listening to that and I swear I warped into another dimension! Great, great stuff.
