Jethro Tull - We Used To Know. It has been one of my favourite guitar solos of all time. Maybe not so prog, but very beautiful and full of emotion.
Yes I think that's what I meant to say, not Reasons for Waiting. Another one - Pavlov's Dog Theme for Subway Sue.
If you haven't watched Mike Oldfield play, watch this
I saw Mike Oldfield few times in early 80's, with Moerlen Bros and Maggie Reilly. Fantastic gigs, I must say! Oldfield is one of the greatest guitar players, he has so unique, own style. And Pavlov's Dog, you're absolutely right! I think it's Pampered Menial time, right now

Every Day, Firth of Fifth - Steve Hackett
Lunar Sea, Ice, Stationary Traveller - Andy Latimer
Jigsaw, Easter - Steve Rothery
There are many other brilliant ones by those artists and also people like Dave Gilmour, Dave Bainbridge, Andy Powell/Ted Turner and Brian Josh, but those seven stand out for me.

What, I can only pick one?
Anything Allan Holdsworth has ever done.
Any Fripp solo up to and including Beat.
One of my favorites (out of way too many to count) is Fripp in Sartori in Tangier.
I am starting to appreciate Hackett's Dancing With a Moonlight Knight solo over Firth of Fifth.
Yeah, anything by Holdsworth.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"
