Velvet Underground - "Heard Her Call My Name" was Just totally relentless - the most insane solo EVER, and my personal favourite!
Byrds - "Eight Miles High". Yeah, everyone always speaks of the subject matter; but what's really amazing is how a record with THREE(!) solos, each of which was probably the most avant-garde solo up to that point in time, could be released as a single and make the top 20
Patto - "Loud Green Song". Ya gotta hear this someday!
Hampton Grease Band - "Hey Old Lady/Bert's Song"
MX-80 Sound, "Afterbirth/Aftermath" - my favourite solos by my favourite guitarist (Bruce Anderson) from my favourite LP, Hard Attack
Funkadelic - "Get Off Your Ass And Jam"
Mahavishnu Orchestra - "The Noonward Race" Absolutely the greatest 6 minutes in the history of jazz fusion.
dozens more.......
