Worst guitar solo ever?

[noogies]

There's always Neil Young's famous One-Note Solo from Cinnamon Girl.

I would have to say that rock anthem from Twisted Sister. "We're Not Gonna Take It". Sad excuse for guitar work, sad excuse for drumming.....just a sad pathetic rock song. do like Snyder's radio show though....he is good at that.

The "do you feel" wawaa abuse on Frampton's live album. That got old after two listens.

Mick Jones on Foreigner's 'Juke Box Hero'. The pain begins at the 3:00 minute mark:

What's with all the music threads in this forum? It doesn't matter except for the fact a lot of interested AKers will never see these questions posted here. I think there might be even greater participation in the Music Forum. Just a thought. :scratch2:

What do you think is the worst guitar solo ever
I;d have to say:
Yes Owner of a Lonely Heart
Steve Miller Abracadabra
Police Driven to Tears
Just a start I'm sure

Lets hear your guitar solo then 'eh??

All those guitarists you mention are successful and accomplished musicians, yes, you can choose not to like their playing/solos, but to be judgemental like that is disrespectful in my opinion.

Exactly-maybe Andy's solo was short, but it says more than many guitarists whole bag of tricks. In addition it actually has relevance to what is happening thematically in the song. I sense the ramblings of someone very musically unedumacated or vastly over to the point of being a critic, yet not a player. Most importantly, it's art-subject to personal opinion. Now if you analyze these pieces of music based on phrasing, note choice, harmonic content, time feel, tone, etc and tell us why they make you so uncomfortable......

...anything Neil Young tried to do... he did. And does.

hah, don't get me wrong, I love Neil, just not as a guitarist. What are all those fingers doing on the fretboard anyway??

I just assumed the mods would move them to the appropriate forum, but that hasn't happened yet.

Assuming "standard" tuning, possibly an "E" chord.

Has anyone requested the thread be moved to Music?

You guys are being mild. Here's the bonus round, if you can make it through the whole thing you've got my respect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=e-PmQ3dFQvs#t=74

I did try. I made it to 19 seconds. :sigh:

Anyone using a 'keytar'

 

[Mystic]

Might also consider moving the Best Guitar Solo thread to Music Forums as well. Or better still, putting it to sleep.

A'ight, just 'cause you asked.
