Until I saw this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifp_SVrlurY&feature=related
Holy crap ... Prince tears it up in his solo (near the end)
Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty were the perfect choices for vocals in this R&R
HoF version of a George Harrison tune ... Bonus points for anyone who
knows how else these three were tied together.
Out-Freakin-Standing!

Not sure I'd call that a solo, mind...

OooooKay ...perhaps you mistook that guitar he was picking for his nose?

Prince can play a mean guitar when he wants to.

That's easy. The Travelling Wilburys.

Yeah... I'm unimpressed. Maybe because the sound quality is so poor I
can barely *hear* any guitar... maybe I just don't like Prince. :-P
Personally, I found this more impressive:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYabmM-uxdE
(Although it does go on a bit.) Similarly, maybe something like
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N82TLB03Vk
for being moody rather than fast and furious.
At the other end of the spectrum, if you want "burning guitars", I defy
you to beat this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiTBccgJBCQ
(It's quite a long way in. Fast-forward to 3:45 if you're impatient.)
The first time I listened to this track, I wasn't completely paying
attention. By the end, I damned-well was!

If you like melodic guitar solos (rather than mindless shredding) you
should try Satriani:

Absolutely agreed.
"Midnight" is one of my favourite tracks /ever/ because it shows real
skill.
Then again, Satriani is well known not just as a performer, but as a
teacher.

Concur ... LOL I've been in some pretty heated discussions about whose
the best, and in hind-sight I think it really boils down to the type of
music you like. There are a few artists that kind of cross those
boundaries, for instance Roy Clark ... I mean the dude can play the
banjo. I like the mandolin and dobro as well. I can't place the guys
name, but he plays with Alison Krauss ... both he and Clapton are pretty
good on the dobro. I think I favor the technician over the flash, but I
do enjoy the showmanship aspect too. Ron Wood certainly would not be
included (by some) on any top ten list, but on the Bridges of Babylon
DVD he had this camera mounted on the neck of his guitar ... was cool
looking down the fretboard and seeing a close-up of his finger work!

Another that I really like listening to is Bela Fleck. Some of his banjo
(yes, banjo) performances of classical works are unbelievably good.
