Top 10 Songs With Two or More Guitar Solos
More people need to hear this song
I don't say these are the best solos (the list isn't about the best solos) - this is just my favorite song out of the songs with 2 or more solos. So I put it at #1 because for me this is the best song in this category.
Thank you Dave Mustaine.
James' solo is great.
I have a soft spot for the first solo, which is also longer. I can't even describe it's last notes - so beautifully sad and full of emotion.
This is an instrumental piece but it has 2 distinct solos (2:35, 4:10). It's probably my favorite instrumental and the piece I was listening to while making this list.
This epic metal classic has at least four solos but we can also say from 4-13 solos because the 4th solo is composed of 8-9 mini-solos within the solo.
5:00-5:20 (20 seconds)
5:53 - 6:13 (20 seconds)
7:37-8:36 (1 minute)
9:35-11:40 (over 2 minutes, in 8-9 parts, on awesome dueling guitars).
I also love the harmonising between Kai and Michael. When they dampen the strings just before the 2nd guitar solo.
Count them - maybe 11 if we count the mini-solos within the solos.
More than 2?! 8-11 I would say
I can't believe I forgot this one - the vocals and drum intro are so mindblowing that its two solos don't come to mind first.
From 2 to 7 solos, depending on how you count them.
Amazing blues rock song - one of my favorite non-metal songs.
3 solos - 2 from Gary Moore and 1 from Albert King as a guest musician (solos at 1:30, 2:35, 3:05)
2 guitar solos (plus a keyboard solo, and believe it or not - even a bass solo! Those people from Deep Purple are amazingly crazy! )
Pretty much almost every Slayer song deserves to be on this list
2 extremely fast, technical and relatively long solos, combined with Mike Mangini's flawless drumming:
1:50-2:40 (50 seconds)
3:00-3:30 (30 seconds, but it's a long time if you play so many notes per minute)
For 100% pleasure listen to the entire section from 1:50 to 3:30. These are one of the fastest and best solos I know - satisfaction guaranteed.
This song is known for its unique intro but it also has 2 long distinct solos from Ritchie Blackmore (I can't say these are his best solos but still cool).
3:40 - 4:30 (50 secs)
5:55 - 6:55 (1 min, outro solo)
2 solos. This is one of my favorite DP songs and I think it's very underrated - unique riff and tunes, symphonic air to it, and I also love Gillan's growls, especially towards the end.
