Buck Dharma - Astronomy (the version on Some Enchanted Evening)

It´s hard to say right now, there are so many great ones. I could think of Fripp´s The Night watch or White shadow, Howe´s Awaken (maybe my fav), Hackett´s Firth of Fifth (love also the Daryl Stuermer version on The way we walk), Steve Rothery´s Easter, Blackmore´s Stargazer....I can´t think of a particular Petrucci solo now, I might find one later.
