His super-bowl performance was par excellence

Ever notice how the āechoeā from the song Echoes plays for one beat in the beginning 20 seconds of āFearlessā?
I realize this was intended for rock/electric guitar solos so my contribution if probably way off track but Iāve always loved this slow acoustic solo
Donāt let the artist fool you, this has no vocals, just a couple of guitars.

Itās not the best from a technical standpoint by any means, but Kerry Kingās solo in Slayerās āRaining Bloodā is one of my all-time favorites.
As is Vernon Reidās in āCult of Personalityā. Both blew my mind as a wee lad.
