Solos
OK, you lazy, lazy, unfeeling people.
I made my little compilation of guitar solos for you and almost none of you tried to guess the titles. Would it have been too much trouble to just make up a list of songs, any songs, and post them here in a comment? Well, now I can tell you the truth that there was a prize, and it was a brand new Pontiac 6, just like Oprah gives away at her show. But I'm sending it back, because no one cared enough to try to win it. Not only that, but maybe now there will be no GuitarMania 2, including some Yardbirds-era Clapton and the triple solo on the B-side of "Abbey Road." How do you feel now? Not so smug, I'll bet. (Note: None of this is directed at the beautiful and talented Laurie Kay Ransonette Anderson or the extremely kind and ethical Aydreeyin Oneiric.)
So here are the songs, and the artists, and the guitarists who played the solos (if I know them):

Yeah, what he said! Actually, I don't even try to hear music on my slow dial-up compouter (not a misspell).
The only reason I fucked with it for the tunes to the Farina songs was that I figured most people wouldn't experience it to be as slow. If everybody had my kind hookup, we'd all ban music on the web, it's that simple.
