Some good shit here

Lamsey I like your list.

Well presented (nice and easy to cut and paste)

And some good riffs also for such as young hormonal guy !

I'm in my 50's but grew up with many of those songs !

Digby

NZ

I used to love the early 60's 12 bar riffs, Chuck Berry, Memphis Tenessesse etc. at one stage just about every song used that one !

As already mentioned, Eagles hotel california rox.

So does the november rain, and dust in the wind. Clapton's solo in Layla is fantastic as well.

And though my last one is more completed by the rest of the instruments in the song I still like it alot.

Shine on you Crazy Diamond - Pink Floyd

17 and a half mins long, and great guitar in it.
