Whats the best riff and/or solo ever played on a Les Paul

[BurstBrian]

I was wondering what everybodies thought was on this subject.
Last night, i was listening to Guns and Roses on my ipod and nightrain
came on.. Man, Slashes solo in this song in friggin awesome. One of my favorites. I started thinking what other great solo's have been played or recorded on a Les Paul...

Any thoughts?.....

stairway

 

[BurstBrian]

Played, recorded. I'm probably asking two different questions... But wasn't
stairway recorded on a Telecaster??

 

[Cooltone]

But wasn't stairway recorded on a Telecaster??

yes, yes it was...

My vote is "All Right Now". Obvoius choice, but the riff and solo combo is stellar.

In memory of Elizabeth Reed.... It's pure!

 

[Pickslide]

Slash on Estranged

 

[Dave Carpenter]

What about Layla? Duane made up what has to be the best known riff and played his parts on a Les Paul and Eric played his parts on a Strat. Would that count?

 

[BurstBrian]

+1. Absolutley Dave....

 

[sgtJoe]

Billy Gibbons-Down Brownie, Tush, Brown Sugar
Leslie West-Mississippi Queen
Lou Reed-Sweet Jane live solos

Just my 2 cents. Thanks.

Favorite solo on a Paul is anything Page does live, 'Since I've Been Loving You' is probably my favorite.

Paradise City may be my favorite riff...

 

[guitarjoe]

Crazy Train was the first that came to mind...

Jimmy Page Riff - Bring it Back Home, The Ocean, Heartbreaker

Billy Gibbons Riff - Just Got Paid

Slash Solo - November Rain

I'd have to say that Sweet Child O' Mine ranks high on my list. But also Page on...what's that song....darn can't remember...well better just make it everything he ever played. Page is so cool.
