the solo in "The Holy River" is fucking great

Thanks for all the great suggestions! I've put together a playlist to check out your recommendations. I'm sure I'll be very pleased.

"when you were mine" (not for flashiness or crazy chops, just a great-sounding guitar song)

Purple Rain, people.

― kyle (akmonday), Wednesday, 7 February 2007 17:02 (eighteen years ago)

"The Holy River" is a great suggestion. Also: "Peach," "Elephants and Flowers," and "Anotherloverholeinyohead."

until I find a righteous one, "Computer Blue". Also check the performance of it in Purple Rain. Contemporary rock bands need to incorporate more choreography.

"Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad" = my favorite guitar solo (some days favorite song period) in the Prince catalog. and "Endorphinmachine" seconded.

The Cross.

― Marco Damiani (Marco D.), Wednesday, 7 February 2007 20:34 (eighteen years ago)

No mention of "Kiss" yet?

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 8 February 2007 03:17 (eighteen years ago)

Kiss: right on. that guitar line is so uptight and loose at the same time, and could only have been done on that instrument.
