Everyone who loves rock and roll has different tastes when it comes to what kind of rock they like, and what is there favorite band. Along with their lists of favorites there is another list of favorites, and that is a list of their best guitar solos.
At the top of my list is a guy that plays an electric guitar in a finger-picking style of an acoustic guitar, he is non other than Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits. Other guitarists look at him in awe because of his talent with a guitar. His guitar solo in “The Sultans of Swing” to me is the best. Next on my list I have Jimmy Page for his outstanding solo in “Stairway To Heaven”, and Eric Clapton with Layla. His original version played on his stratocaster electric guitar is one of the best rock songs of all time.
