Everyone has their own opinions on what can be considered "good" guitar playing. That being said, what do you consider to be the best and worst guitar solos that exist out there? I could name a billion for each but I have narrowed it down to the two on my mind as of right now.
One of the best guitar solos/performances in my book. Song written and performed by a smaller independent band - DISPATCH - with ridiculous lead guitar by Phil Keaggy. Song was performed at the Hatch Shell in Boston, MA back in May of 2004....Hands down the best concert I have been to; please ignore the skirt, can't quite figure it out:

The worst guitar solo I can think of (I am probably going to catch some heat for this one) is Keith Richards in "Sympathy for the Devil". The song is a true masterpiece and then Keith comes in and tears it apart with 30 seconds of scratchy and unmelodic guitar playing. But to each their own:
