My question is a seemingly simple one.
Which has the best solo?
I'm really torn, but I think I'd have to go for Zeppelin's Achilles Last Stand. It just pips it in my opinion.
So - thoughts?

Achilles Last Stand, though Eddie Van Halens solos wipe the floor with it, even though it's all finger tapping.
Anyone who has heard the extended version of Eruption will vouch for that.
It drags on a little, at over 3 minutes long, but it's class, although does it really count as a solo, seeing as it's a solo the whole way through?
Mean Streets (Left out of their new album for ome odd reason), Hot For Teacher and Running with teh Devil also have some good solos.

Best solos.......boheimian Rhapsody was pretty good, also anything Jimi Hendrix played :D
Achilles, no contest. SCOM is more pop than rock, but it's still good.
And it's a much better song anyway... much better to play live, the drumming rocks all and the lyrics are, while not the greatest ever, very very cool. Zeppelin at their tightest as a group, I'd say. Shame the rest of Presence isn't that good... but still, if they were capable of doing a song like that just before Bonham died, then you've gotta wonder what we might have missed..
Best solo ever? I'm really not sure, hard to judge that one. I've always had a slight bias towards Pink Floyd with that though, Shine on, Comfortably Numb... Fat Old Sun was great too, but yeah.

That song rocks.
Best solo ever = Final Countdown.
Sweet Child Of Mine wins it for me. Don't get me wrong, I love Zeppelin and all, but I remember Guns N' Roses conquering the world. Plus I can play Sweet Child Of Mine.
Best solo ever is Dry County incidentally.
