    According to legend, George Clinton told Eddie Hazel during the recording session to imagine he had been told his mother was dead, then for the second half of the song finding out it wasn't true. The result was the 10-minute guitar solo for which Hazel is most fondly remembered by many music critics and fans.

    Though several other musicians began the track playing, Clinton soon realized the power of Hazel's solo and faded them out so that the focus would be on Hazel's guitar. Critics have described the solo as "lengthy, mind-melting" and the ending as "an emotional apocalypse of sound."

    The entire track was recorded in one take.

    Came up in the NYC scene in the late 70s. Put out 2 great albums (and 1 after a reunion in the 90s). Marquee Moon is one of the top 5 greatest guitar records ever.

    So many to choose from, and this is just talking rock guitarists,

    Anythnig Hendrix, but most notably Voodoo Child
    Anything Pete Townshend but most notably Baba O'Reilly

    And anything by Tom Morello, Slash, Clapton, Eddie Van Halen, Duane Allman, Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, Dickey Betts, and Alex Lifeson from Rush, as well as a slew of others also need to be mentioned.
    Oh, I also have to mention this song (the only Pantera song I like):

    I write things about poker at my Poker Blog and elsewhere on the Internets
