All of the guitar work is amazing on this one, but 1:50 and 3:50 are all about passion. Almost forgot 5:40.

Really powerful leads (guitar, vocals, or whatever) always depend on a great band... Fr example, on that Santana track, the Tower of Power horn section kicks it up a notch, IMHO...

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Parke County, Indiana | | Gilmour just oozes emotion when he plays any solo, so he has to be named, but the second solo break (the long one) in "My Sharona" is one of my all time favorites. There is such joy and happiness in that thing. It's a fun solo to watch people dance to also. They can't not smile

| | | | Don't know if it's at the top of the list, but Dave Gilmour's solo at the end of "High Hopes" never fails to give me the chills from head to toe. Gorgeous simplicity with a bleak feel of loss and profound longing for things past, it exemplifies the emotional power of music for me.

however, let me add my own. I don't know if you would consider this a break since it is absolute burning guitar through the whole song, ...but....
