Free Bird and Eruption are my favorites.

Satriani has some good ones and Buckethead too.

Buckethead is awesome. I like Joe Satriani's 'Crushing Day'.

Other greats are

Vinnie Moore
Jason Becker (sad what happened to him, Lou Gehrig's disease. Could have been the greatest)
Steve Vai (porbably the most technically sound guitarist in the world right now, trained under Satriani)
Eric Johnson
John Petrucci
Paul Gilbert

Just about any song that Buckethead or Satriani do could be on the greatest solo list. They're almost all instrumentals so they're pretty much solos the whole song. IMO they are the two best guitarists out there.

NICE!!!!!! First thing that came to my mind was 'something by Gilmour'.......the solo from "Time" is one of my favorite's though.
