Nothing will ever top what Hendrix did to close out Woodstock. GOATest of GOATs.

He was high as a kite....and still up a legendary performance

[J Shuttlesworth]

Lil Wayne

He's got nothing on Fred Durst:

dick tracy aka mark coleman

[TheMan]

K.K. and Glenn....the two that got me started playing. Still my all-time favorite duo. I consider them the MJ and Pippen of Heavy Metal.

For me it was Dave and Adrian from Maiden, especially Dave. Got my first Fender Strat, a black with white pickguard with maple fretboard specifically because that was his main axe. I even took out the single coil bridge pickup and put a humbucker in it

Lil Wayne

GOAT gonna GOAT! I think it was when he whipped out his axe and just splooged all over everyone on SNL, that I decided to pick up the guitar for the first time!

Eric Clapton

Jimi Hendrix

Jimmi is another perfect example of pure musicality and feeling in guitar soloing. He was one of those players where it was like the guitar was no longer just a guitar, it was this living breathing thing that was speaking to you! Love Jimmy. One of my first loves on guitar along with Brian May.

Chris Brown

Oh and since this is an NBA forum, Buckethead has a bunch of songs dedicated to LeBron James:

He has so many good songs it's hard to pick a fav. Especially with the sheer volume of albums he's released over the past decade or two.

I fell in love with him back in the early 90's when he was doing his thing w/ Praxis; playing w/ Bootsy and them...doing stuff like this stuff like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EHw_lIc6EY

He only got better as the years went on. Stuff he did solo, stuff he did w/ Claypool and others...none if is it bad.

I like a lot of his slower emotional stuff too...like the entire album Colma is mostly emotional stuff, with far less shredding. Then there are the "Pikes" albums.

Always liked this one off Colma https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Nj1D2y-PY8

This was was great too, also off Colma: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0X-vtyGZtK0

Another from Colma, in honor of Father's Day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lr4Ixrkz5Vc

And this one off of Electric Tears: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2WsPN-rr9o

Then you get stuff like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgPhsXHMSb8

In recent years I heard nice guitar solo Canon rock (or its cover by Funtwo):

All-time: Slash, Brian May, Gilmour (Pink Floyd), Hendrix.

Less known as super talented guitarists: Mike Oldfield or good call by Mr. Jabbar - George Harrison.

Oldfield, best bits from 1:55 min. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZOF...2663BEDBA736D7

Are you kidding me? Slash was no where near top tier level.

Listen to Herman Li and come talk to me.
