My personal favourites are the ones in 'Devil and Daughter' by Black Sabbath, 'Disposable Heroes by Metallica, and 'Eruption' by Van Halen. Who disagrees?

I agree with you 100%. I have absolutely no idea why people like all that talent-less rubbish.
Pink Floyd/Roger Waters : Comfortable Numb awsome solo, still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end when I hear it. Other than that:
Anything by CC Deville (Poison)
Slash: Night Train, Sweet Child
Kirk H: Nothing Else Matters/One

Although technically you could argue since metal really came mainly from Black Sabbath, it's evolved from a heavy blues sound as well as the rock stuff like Led Zep and Purple and whatever. Sorry I'm going through a major Sabbath obsession lately.
And yeah I utterly despise people like 50cent. It's all centered around image. Not any musical talent (lucky for him since he has none). Just talking over a preset keyboard beat about how 'gangsta' he is. Or something.

People can like what they want to.
Sure we may think it to be incredibly dull, but others love it.
Nothing, in my opinion, conveys such a range of emotion as rock, except perhaps classical.

I think you missed the point - I'm talking about a live performance. You can't play three guitars at once unless you have three hands. Jordan (and Prince) can play a guitar one-handed... see? Something to do with the way you strike the strings.
It sounds like you'd only be able to play simple stuff but Prince pulled out a pretty complex solo when i saw him do this

i think you missed the point, i'm talking about a live performance, Skynrd had 3 guitar players going in a live video i saw. same as maiden do.

yeah, John Otway does this as well, in fact he has a double guitar with a neck on the left and the right and plays both at once. VERY cool!!

it's actually pretty easy, as long as the initial hit is fairly forceful, you can hammer-on and pull-off to get some kick ass effects...

Heavy blues sound? Don't you mean blues rock?

Well I suppose it's really a combination. But it's not right to put metal down as coming purely from rock, since Sabbath really defined metal and their early stuff was really blues with a bit more added in. Although it's pretty hard to categorise it since it's still pretty unique.
Steve Vai had a triple neck guitar. 2 on the left side, 1 on the right.
As for Stanley Jordan, he even shaves the frets on his guitars down, and then lowers the string action so you only need lightly touch the strings to get a decent sound. I like tapping, gives a cool tone.
