Don't know how many Orgers are gonna visit this thread. But I'm going with "Unskinny Bop" by Poison. I saw the video the other night and forgot how horrible it was.
And even though it's your opinion, I love the solo in "Lowdown". It fits the feel of the song and a lot of people think it's Steve Lukather but it's not. It's Les Dudek. | |

Whats The Frequency Kenneth? by REM. What the hell was all that about? sounds like a cat dying. | |

I will agree that it's stupid, obnoxious and unnecessary, but that's kinda CC Deville in a nutshell, isn't it? I never gave that song a chance because shortly thereafter, MTV put 'Something To Believe In' in heavy rotation and I had to drop Poison ASAP. | |

I nominate Madonna!
Anytime she decides to pick up a guitar and act as though she can play is the worst solo IMO. Whoever said Boz Scaggs doesn't know a thing about music! | |

There was an excellent Yngwie spoof up before his management pulled it. Here's one featuring EVH on a bad day... A few more from the Shredder Hall of Fame... tA  Tribal Disorder

"Oh Sherry" by Steve Perry. Not one of Waddy's best moments. "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |

That one with EVH is just wrong on all levels..but's it's hysterical. Sounds like what I usually hear in Guitar Center on a Saturday afternoon. | |

Whaaat? Nah, I've always dug the lead playing on that song. Two solos where I'm not saying are "bad" or "horrible" but I never dug though personally are the leads on "Shooting Star" by Mick Ralphs/Bad Company and Slash's lead on "Paradise City"/Guns N Roses. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 I just listened to it now. Yeah, it's a bit thin. All 8 notes are memorable though. You can't ask for a better solo than one that people can hum by memory almost 45 years after it was recorded, right? | |

It should have been called The Shredder Hall of SHAME!
Well since NDRU & Meloh9 liked them so much. 
...Slash ...Stevie Ray Vaughn ...Clapton ...Paco de Lucia ...Scofield & Pastorius And a sincere apology to Amaxx for the severe jacking.

Hi all,
I have to tell you, that EVH "bad" solo is a fake. Look up Eddie Van Halen + NAMM on youtube to hear the REAL solo. You would be amazed! Mutts | |
