Eruption by Van Halen. Not the best, but quite good.

The big deal is at the end of the song.

I like the guitar in `Victim Of Changes` by Judas Priest. Sometimes i can`t get it out of my head. And I`m listening to it right now.

Yes... For me too. (But I don`t exceed the speed limit. Some years left for me to drive a car.)

That song almost makes me cry.

It changes every day. Today I'll have to go with "Watermelon in Easter Hay" Zappa seeing that I listened to it this morning. If you haven't heard it, it's beautiful piece of music.

rattlesnake shake by PETER GREEN'S (not Lindsay Buckingham's) Fleetwood Mac is my favorite. Comfortably Numb is quite excellent too

Lonely in the Night by Eric Johnson is a definite contender, as is Venus Isle.

There's a story about that. He was warming up before a show and a some producer/tech said, 'HEY! Do that again, I'm going to record it!" So Eddie does his little warm up and just makes up the rest. He even messed up in one part. Definetly not a challenge for Mr. Van Halen.

My vote is Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson.

Just an improvised jam in A. 4/4 time, 12 bar riff (I played about 240 bars worth) , rock feel, about 100 bpm tempo..

Ummm I dunno.. let's call it..

"Sally's Thong went Wrong."
