Quote:3. Meh, while I agree Schon is good and probably underrated, I've never heard a Journey solo that really made me care either way. Good band, good songs for the most part, just a lack of anything really great "solo-wise". 

 

4. Disappointed that you left out Trevor Rabin from your list. His solo on "Owner of a Lonely Heart" probably should not only have made your list, but probably the top 50 from the other list, too. 

3.  Guitar solo begins at 2:27

Some great bass work by Ross Valory, if you listen carefully, too.  I'm not Journey's biggest fan by any means, but it's an incredible 2 minutes

 

4. I prefer Steve Howe's guitar work in Yes.  I do like Rabin's solo in "It Can Happen".  I had to draw the line somewhere, and I didn't even get into all my favorite genres. 

 

John Denver in "Darcy Farrow".  Bob Mould's "See a Little Light".  Men at Work's "Overkill".

 

Getting back to the list, I'm impressed that Gibson listed so many artists that used the competition's instruments.
