do we choose any particular song just to have a greater chance to entry? if I were calculating I'd suggest Tolerate, if alternative perhaps Faster, but with all respect to other songs I'll go with Motorcycle Emptiness.

Unquestionably, JDB's greatest guitar solo of all time

is Autumnsong.

I bet some "Classic rock" wankery will win. My money's on Stairway to Heaven, or something by Guns N' Roses.

You're probably right. Gary Moore was in the last top ten list 3 separate times and I don't think dying will do him any harm. Hotel California was the last winner I think.

I don't think of it as a solo - it's just the best part of a brilliant coda. My favourite solo on the 'Bible is Die In The Summertime - favourite JDB solo ever is probably the one in the outro to Motorcycle Emptiness. (Then again, he's shredding some kind of awesomeness on that track!)

I think most of the votes are counted through Twitter, or through emailing them.
