one big clappie Clap that solo kicks Hillary levels of assery....

and one headscratcher  ... am I the only one that VASTLY prefers the studio version of the Last Days of May to the live version... I much prefer his raw moody guitar tone to the (necessary I suppose) overamplied live setting.. that is a song that sh*ts raw moody and dark... it loses out a lot live in big stadiums IMO.

Steve Howe's two guitar solos in Yes' Ritual (Symphonic version especially).  When I'm in the right mood, the second one can make me cry.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

More of a duet, the intro to Sweet Jane from Lou Reed's Rock n Roll Animal always gets the air guitar going.

Latimer at the end of Nimrodel, in Lunar Sea and at the start/middle of Lady Fantasy.
Hackett on Every Day (and probably other songs too).
Satellite (don't know the name of the guitarist)'s 2-3 minutes ending solo of "On the run"
Nick Barrett : almost all of his solos, especially the ending of Master of Illusion, or Learning Curved or Indigo.

The only solo I'm actually capable of remembering every time I asked this question is Petrucci's Peruvian Skies solo.

Every solo of Francisco Neto, from Lands End.
He has the capacity to keep invisible and let only the music in the air.

Also Jhon Petrucci has made some very impressive solos, but to me not so deep as Francisco Neto did.

PS sorry for the poor english

Allan Holdsworth on The Things You See (when you haven't got your gun) and Frank Zappa on Sleep Dirt

Bonus Track: Tim Smith on To Go Off and Things from All that Glitters is a Mares Nest... yes, I do consider that 5 seconds rant as an awesome guitar solo.
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
They did so long ago
