Top 10 Guns 'N Roses Songs with the Best Slash Solos
The top ten greatest guitar solos from the best guitar player ever.
-
November Rain
Even though the Sweet Child O' Mine guitar solo is my current favorite, the November Rain solos belong in my heart. The solos are heartfelt and tell a story. The notes chosen for the solos fit into the chord progression quite perfectly. The outside notes of the scale are creatively applied to create pleasing tension.
The composition of the outro solo is amazing! I love the melody and sequencing created for this section. The shred legato was effectively applied, displaying both skill and creativity.
Bottom line: The entire song, not just the solo, belongs in my heart.
Incredible solo, just incredible. Just listening to it makes me want to cry. So much passion and emotion.
-
Sweet Child 'O Mine
Even though Slash personally hates this song, I absolutely believe that his guitar solo is among the greatest guitar solos ever played. He recorded this guitar solo in one take, and it couldn't have been any better had he played it a thousand more times.
Sweet Child O' Mine is a masterpiece! Slash's solo in this song is arguably the greatest of all time by any guitarist, not just Slash!
This solo is amazing with its rhythm and spirit. This is, in my opinion, his best solo.
-
Estranged
Best solo by any man alive. Better than Vaughan or Santana or even Ol' Bieber.
The last solo is very heavily underrated. It's beautiful.
-
Nightrain
It's just a great song with one of Slash's best solos. But actually, all of Slash's solos are fantastic! He is great! I love him!
One of the best riffs and solos combined to make this song.
-
Paradise City
-
Civil War
Best song I've ever heard. It will always be my favorite song, and Slash plays like a god in this song!
-
Don't Cry
One of the best solos. The song makes me cry, and the solo does the same. It's just driving me crazy and making me cry so much. My favorite song. Gn'r is the best.
A better solo than Estranged, so it should be at 4th. November Rain, Sweet Child O' Mine, Paradise City, Don't Cry.
Damn. This is the best solo by Slash. How is it not number 5!?
-
Knockin' On Heaven's Door
This is just perfect.
P.S.: I'd vote for Nightrain, but the solo was played by Izzy Stradlin. If you don't know about it, don't comment on it!
Awesome heart put into this song and two great solos.
Best song ever. I get goosebumps every time I hear it!
-
Welcome to the Jungle
Oh my god, is this at number 7? This should be number 1!
-
Godfather Theme Solo
Not the most famous, but damn this solo is so awesome! Just listen to the Made in Stoke version. It's the best solo ever!
This is way better than Sweet Child O' Mine. He uses more techniques than in any other solo.

Heartbreak Hotel

Ain't It Fun
-
Rocket Queen
Probably the most underappreciated solo in all of rock and roll. Not just technically proficient, but beautiful.
Love his talkbox wickedness in this one. One of the best, especially live. Also a great outro!
-
Double Talkin´ Jive
This is the best solo mayhem ever played. Strong, emotional, outstanding performance by Slash and Izzy Stradlin.
-
You Could Be Mine
-
Anastasia
One of his best songs. I'd put it up there with Slither, Sweet Child O' Mine, Don't Cry, Fall to Pieces, and November Rain. The live 2013 version on YouTube will blow your mind.
-
Breakdown
-
Coma
-
Patience (Live Era)
The Patience live era solo is an improvised piece. It just shows how good Slash is to make that up.
-
Locomotive (Complicity)
-
Mr. Brownstone
Solo makes my receptors explode. Like a cocaine overdose.
-
Don't Damn Me
-
Out Ta Get Me
This song and solo are extremely underrated!
This song is awesome, probably my second favorite song and solo by Slash, behind Nightrain.

Slither

Black Or White

The Garden
