Pink Floyd guitar solo sits comfortably in first place
Press Association Monday August 28, 2006 The Guardian
Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb has the best guitar solo of all time, according to a new poll. It was chosen ahead of the opening riff from Sweet Child O' Mine by Guns N' Roses. Third was Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd, while Eruption by Van Halen was fourth and Guns N' Roses' November Rain fifth. Led Zeppelin classic Stairway to Heaven was in sixth place.
The radio station Planet Rock asked listeners to come up with a top 40. The rest of the top 10 featured Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits, Aqualung by Jethro Tull, Hotel California by the Eagles and Child In Time by Deep Purple.
I don't remember where I heard it (I think it was on XM) but there was a survey a while back for the best guitar solo, and I think Machine Gun- by Jimi Hendrix won.
