Slash, o primeiro melhor solo de guitarra da história

A revista britânica NME promoveu uma pesquisa com a ajuda de músicos como Frank Turner e Alex James, e diversas bandas como Coldplay, Kasabian, Cage The Elefant e The Macabees, que responderam a seguinte pergunta: "Qual o melhor solo de guitarra de todos os tempos?". E assim saiu a lista dos 50 maiores solos da história, segundo a NME.

Em segundo lugar entrou o solo do legendário Jimmy Page do Led Zeppelin com o clássico ‘Stairway To Heaven’, além de abocanhar o 15º posto com ‘Communication Breakdown’ e o 25º com ‘Since I’ve Been Loving You’; o terceiro lugar foi para o ícone Jimi Hendrix com o solo arrebatador de 'All Along The Watchtower'; já o hit ‘Killing In The Name’ do Rage Against The Machine garantiu a vaga de quarto lugar para Tom Morello; e o Muse do ótimo cantor e guitarrista britânico Matthew Bellamy chegou em quinto, com o solo apoteótico de 'Knights Of Cydonia'.
