Favorite "emotional" guitar solo

Pink Floyd's comfortably numb.

I just about cry when listening to it.

+1.

I saw Roger Waters a few years back and Dave Kilminster played the middle and end solos better than Gilmour if you can believe it. It was insane. Best solo I have seen in 30 years of seeing almost every top band. I am a huge Gilmour fan but this was epic. Funny, Kilminster loathes playing that solo too.:eek:

full disclosure: Being a little buzzed at the time may have helped!;)
 
I like nearly everything David Gilmour has played. Robin Trower is also a favorite. One song I really like is on Blue Oyster Cult's live album, "On Your Feet or On Your Knees" and the song is "Then Came the Last Days of May." Buck Dharma's playing seems very emotional to me. It helps a bit to remember seeing him play it on that tour and a few subsequent ones.
