Cool guitar solos
Thrillho:
While we're talking Pixies - the three solos in 'Monkey Gone To Heaven' are idiotic genius, and I love the relentless solo from 'Debaser.'
squishything:
I concur. Joe Santiago always went for those idiotically simple solos that just fit completely. I haven't had the chance to listen to any of his newer stuff with the Martini's though, has anyone here heard it?

Oh dang, I haven't heard about that. Norris was that band. I get chills every time I listen to "Veritas, Aequitas" and Hidden Hands in general was as close to perfect as you could get. Hopefully he'll start up something that builds on everything he's done so far and not have to start from scratch.
RedLion:
So many of Pink Floyd's songs are, like, built for the solos in them. That is, even though they probably weren't written with the purpose of being a showcase for a solo, the solos become the focal point of them..particularly on something like Comfortably Numb, where the solos are so packed with emotion.
For sheer bombastic over-the-top Proggy goodness, Dream Theater's "Glass Prison" is great.
Spluff:
I was going to say that, but I couldn't quite remember the title of the song.
