I must compile a top 10 list of the best 80's metal solos.
In this list must be the maiden, EVH, and Yngwie Malmsteen...above and beyond that the rest is up to you!

what is the solo from "Here I go Again" by Whitesnake like?
- jevad0
hmmmm...pretty good...but I dunno about top 10 material....

zakk wylde
but my opinion is: heavy metal is dead. grunge killed it back in the 90ies - i was so thankful then

i think hallowed be thy name has some sweet lead stuff going on...
rock the night from europe... sweet child o'mine... i'd argue for eruption even though it is just a solo... and you've got to have some scorpions in there too
- pascii0
not the scorpions please...

Reb Beach's solos for Winger are pretty insane.
Not that I listened to them. A friend told me. Yeah...definitely not me.

A cautionary note about Scorpions and such. I think those are better fodder for a top ten hair band thread. Not a lot of good guitar work there.

The solo in White Lion's "Wait"
Steve Vai on "Yankee Rose"
Yngwie - the entire Rising Force record.
Vernon Reid - "Cult of Personality"
Anything by Randy Rhoads
..and the hits just keep on coming...

I totally agree with TheTick on Vernon Reid!!
Add Paul Gilbert from Mr. Big. The guy taped fuckin picks to a drill and went totally ape.

Paul Gilbert is a fucking guitar virtuoso

Vernon is such a love/hate guy with guitarists, but that "Cult" solo made me just stop and say "WTF is this guy doing?" Which is always a good thing. Caught Vernon last Spring playing with Masque. Dude fuckin shreds

I think that deserves a Nigel "Fucking" Tufnel.Goes to 11. None more black.

After some thought, I think Vernon gets a special place. Unreal player, and so creative.
Living Colour, my first show Yeah!
