I have to say, I just have always loved the intro to Money For Nothing by Dire Straits (known as the MTV song).

speaking of dire straits, sultans of swing is one of the best songs ever

Definitely Stairway,

I love Warren Haynes on Jimi off CP

but one of the best all-time solos is David Gilmour's solo in Pink Floyd's Mother

Yeah. My folks have been playing them since I was little. Also, I got Mark Knoupher's (head runner, and guitarist for Dire Straits) Sailing to Philadelphia, and that album is great. I love the title track with James Taylor.

Yes, Mark Knopfler is amazing. Great voice and superb guitar work. Check out the last solo in "Sultans of Swing" It;s one of my faves

311 - Stealing Happy Hours

Simple to play, but absolutely beautiful, and it fits the song perfectly. Also one of the greatest songs ever written, in my humble opinion.

Little Wing - SRV, the entire song

Freebird in a close second

Yeah, I have always loved the Freebird solo, but my favorite is probably the one from "Frantic" by On Second Thought (a Boulder, CO band)
