1 - Steve Cropper - Green Onions - Saw him with Booker T and the MGs as Neil Young's band on tour. Amazing. He makes it look so easy and he makes the guitar sing.

2 - Robert Fripp - Frippertronics - Remarkable

3 - Jimi Hendrix - Crosstown Traffic - The ultimate

 

[Dazmb]

Impossible! But here are as good as any:

1. I'm So Afraid - Fleetwood Mac (Lindsey Buckingham - either 'The Dance' or 'Boston' live albums)
2. Under The Floor Again - The Damned (Captain Sensible)
3. Rough Boy - ZZ Top (Billy Gibbons)

 

[Lost Angeles]

Just spent an hour thinking about this and have decided to avoid the obvious and go for my 5th favourite
Dave Clem Clempson/ Colosseum/ Lost Angeles. (Obvious really) Favourite live track.
then 2 that might make my top twenty
Zal Cleminson / Sensational Alex Harvey Band / Anthem
Alvin Lee /Ten Years After / Love Like A Man LP Version

 

[RodhasGibson]

Try These. 1. Santana [Black Magic Woman] Santana

2.Gary Moore Blues For Greeny

3.Joe Walsh Hotel California

Plus Robert Cray/Eric Clapton/BB King etc etc too many classics and difficult to choose

Peter Buck on REM's Country Feedback live in Wiesbaden, also on In Time...*

Robin Fink on There Was A Time by Guns 'N' Roses.* #

Bumblefoot's Guitars Suck. Im counting the whole piece as solo, because i can.*

* There are probably many better choices.

# It might actually be Buckethead. They're both all over that song i think.

Great thread this , I loaded all the tracks I had not heard before or the versions of which I had not got onto a Spotify playlist (There were a couple I could not find) and played them all the other night and very enjoyable it was.
I'm glad I did not pick my top three as someone picked two of them anyway.
It's a shame a few more people did not respond, perhaps we all ought to be allowed to post 3 more each.
