I'm still very happy with my list from the previous thread, so I'll just quote that.

My favourite of all time: Minstrel In The Gallery - Jethro Tull (Guitarist: Martin Barre)

My favourite of the last 25 years: Love Your Way - Powderfinger :bow: (Guitarist: Ian Haug/Darren Middleton)

Other favourites:

Bow River - Cold Chisel :bow: (Guitarist: Ian Moss) (NOTE: If I remember correctly, the guitar solo in this live version isn't the same as the studio version. The studio version is much better IMO.)

Yea Ron...

after going through a few times, I managed to get 76 of them. I missed all the Metal stuff except Hells Bells..... I played most of those songs at one time or another in many local bands and in the studio as back up. Not having played seriously for 17 yrs, makes me want to get back into it abit.

PS: I would have included "Hotel California" and dumped a lesser known riff.. but thats my opinion...
