Man that's a hard one! Uli Jon Roth squeezes some of the most beautiful and electrifying lead guitar on record, but he's more psych rock than prog (just barely)-- so I guess I'll say Di Meola's staccato fireworks on 'Sequencer' from the Scenario album. Maybe follow that with Holdsworth's 'Qustions' from the Wardenclyffe Tower CD.

Soloing is the most important part in prog-rock song for me and I always wait for this moments when I listen to an album. These are my favorite solos (I'm especially fan of Hammond that's why I mention the biggest number of solos made on this instrument):
Guitar: 1.Uriah Heep - "The Magician's Birthday" 2.Deep Purple - "Highway Star" 3.Frumpy - "Duty" 4.Led Zeppelin - "Dazed and Confused" (especially the live verion from "The Song Remains The Same" is really killing !) 5.Black Sabbath - "Under the Sun" (fascinating, pompous guitar "outro") Bass: 1.Black Sabbath - "N.I.B." 2.Collegium Musicum - "Si nemozná ~ You are impossible Part 1" (great !!!!) 3.Vanilla Fudge - "Break Song" 4.Trikolon - "Fugue" Drums: 1.Iron Butterfly - "In-a-gadda-da-vida" 2.Night Sun - "Living with the Dying" 3.Dr. Z - "Spiritus, Manes Et Umbra" (any other drums soloing is just annoying for me) Harpsichord: 1.Dr.Z - "Spiritus, Manes Et Umbra" 2.Gracious - "Fugue in D Minor" 3.Yes - "Siberian Khatru" Piano: 1.ELP - Karn Evil 9" 2.Par Lindh Project - "Gradus ad Parnassum" 3.The Nice - "Hang on to a Dream" (especially live version from "Elegy") 4.Argent - "Be Glad" Organ: 1.Uriah Heep - "Gypsy" 
2.The Nice - "Rondo" 3.ELP - "Tarkus" 4.Eloy - "Land of No Body" (killing outro) 5.Eloy - "The Light from Deep Darkness" (another mindblowing outro) 6.Colosseum - "Valentyne Suite" 7.ELP - "Karn Evil 9" (2 great solos) 8.2066 & Then - "Spring" 9.Frumpy - "How the Gypsy was Born" 10.Still Life - "Love Song No.6" 11.Aardvark - "Put that in your Pipe" 12.Trikolon - "In search of the Sun" 13.Still Life - "People in Black" 14.Collegium Musicum - "Concerto in D 15.Collegium Musicum - "Suita po tisíc a jednej noci" 16.McPhee - "Indian Rope Man" 17.Jacula - "In Old Castle" (church organ brainwash) 
18.Par Lindh Project - "Mundus Incompertus" 19.Gerard - "The Pendulum" 20.Ars Nova - "Prominence" 21.Food Brain - "That Will Do" 22.Ache - "Equatorial Rain" 23.Beggar's Opera - "Raymond's Road" 24.Birth Control - "Sundown" 25.The Doors - "Light my Fire" 26.Bodkin - "Three Days After Death (Part 1)" 27.Bram Stoker - "Ants" 28.Frumpy - "Duty" (especially live version) 29.Cairo - "Valley of the Shadow" 30.Hunger - "Trying to Make the Best No 2" (a lot of psychy Hammond "torturings") 31.The Old Man & The Sea - "Going Blind" 32.Ikarus - "Eclipse" (totaly psychy-spacey organ journey along with monotonous bass riff) 33.Le Orme - "Cemento Armato" 34.Jane - "Spain" (best Werner Nadolny's solo) 35.Pell Mell - "From the New World" 36.Rare Bird - "Flight" 37.Rustichelli & Bordini - "Cammelandia" 38.Social Tension - "Go on my Way" 39.Tetragon - "Doors in Between" 40.Trace - "Gaillarde" 41.Triumvirat - "E Minor 5/9 Minor /5" 42.Tyburn Tall - "War Game" And many many others... (Maybe not exactly in such order but I can assure you that all of them are equaly mindblowing :-) Edited by ozzy_tom - June 15 2008 at 07:13 |

Both of Alex Lifeson's solos in Natural Science, Geddy Lee's short solos on YYZ and the one on La Villa Strangiato.
Neil Peart's solo on the live versions of YYZ
Carl Palmer's solo on Tank
Rick Wakemen's classical-like solo in Siberian Khatru
Keith Emerson's hammond organ solo in Karn Evil 9: 1st Impression, Part 2, and his jazzy solo in the beginning of Karn Evil 9: 2nd Impression
That covers the most common prog instruments I think!
