Okay, so I know how crass it is to say 'everyone listen to this song', but.... OMG, seriously, if you love electric guitar, LISTEN TO THIS SONG!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh3bleXWaCkIt goes by the name 'Maggot Brain', but before the name turns you away it actually isn't a death metal song or anything. It's 'acid rock', by the band Funkadelic, and in fact it has no lyrics save for a little spoken word bit at the end. It's all one long guitar solo.
This is the single deepest, most emotional, most
soul rendingly soulful guitar solo I have ever heard in my entire life, and I'm not a person who brings out 'the best I've ever heard in my life' card for just anything. Apparently, when the guitarist, Eddie Hazel, was about to go in to play this, he was told by one of his bandmates: "
Play it like had just learned that your mother had died." and by god, that's what it sounds like.
If you love electric guitar and have never heard this song, I consider it my duty to recomend you listen to it. You won't be disapointed.
