Comfortably Numb is my neighbor's favorite song whether they like it or not.

I play all those solos just like Rick except my guitar is made of air.

My brother was a musician much in your vein. He LOVED music. Sometimes he became the music. He did a version of Traffic’s Low Spark of High Herled Boys that would make people cry (he was a crazy good blues vocalist). He’d play a song off an album, but always go back and talk about what was happening lyrically, musically with particular attention to the arrangement/production choices. When I was a kid I used to roll my eyes at his breakdowns . Now I’d give anything to hear him talk about his favorite guitar solos again. Listening to you talk, I was taken back to 1970 in our living room listening to Joe talk about Jimi Hendrix, Canned Heat or Blind Faith. Almost everything I knew about great music came from him. His nickname was Encyclopedia Joe. RIP Joe love you so much. Miss you so much. You came damn close to Joe. Thank you for this experience. 🙏😊🙏

Mr. Beato, Your list of the top 20 guitar solos of all time was very well chosen, and it was an absolute pleasure watching and listening to you playing those solos. Thank you for this superb video!

Can we pause for a second and recognize that Rick can play all of it and not break a sweat?! Bravo.

David Gilmour guitar solos is pure art

Gilmour is amazing. His work on Atom Heart Mother and Animals is simply mind blowing. Never the stuff you hear on radio too. 😢

I'm 55 years old, I hope to live until I'm 100, but when I die, my daughter knows that when I'm buried, it has to be to the sound of Comfortably Numb!!! Big hug from Lisbon Portugal 🇵🇹

The second guitar solo from Comfortably Numb is the one that hits me the hardest. The main solo is undeniably great, and worthy of your top pick...but it's the outro solo that tears down The Wall.

Can we stop for a moment and appreciate the level of work it takes to recreate some of these songs from scratch? Bravo for not giving into the senseless YouTube auto takedown nightmare and working around it with blood sweat and tears. Also, that Neal Schon solo is why I play guitar today.

man, you nailed it with Frampton's Lines on my face. That entire LP is simply flawless.

My number 1 guitar solo is Duane Allman's slide on "Little Wing", covered by Derek and the Dominos. His solo together with Jim Gordon's drums is stunning.

Imagine being able to play along with ANY song you wanted to. It's like a superpower.

When my then-6 year old first heard the solo on Comfortably Numb, she said “It feels like I’m flying”. Couldn’t have said it any better.

There must be two in the list: - Steve Hackett: "Firth of fifth", by Genesis - Franco Mussida: "Suonare, suonare", by PFM as performed in their "LIve in Japan"
