Tunnel of love
 

[Millionaire Blues]

Thats a joke right??? Tunnel of love is up there!!! Incredible stuff. If ever find myself doubtting Mark's genius, a listen to the tunnel of love solo quickly puts me in my place!!! That solo is true genius!!!!

 

[Pottel]

One world?

[Love Expresso]

Must be Ticket to Heaven, if there is one solo in that...

Yeah, ofcourse. Tunnel of Love is the best solo. It's the best song in the whole world ever IMO 
My favourite...

My Parties maybe?

[Rollergirl]

well somebody's "worse" is bound to be somebody else's favourite. I bet we will not agree on one.


(edited after I realised that you did not forget the word "song" and you really  meant just "solo" arf arf, I haven't been drinking (yet) .
Still, what I said about somebody's worse blah blah still applies so I'll leave it)

[Pottel]

no more suggestions? come on folks, there is bound to be some stinker out there

I can honestly say, there is not one solo I have heard Mark play, that I thought, that is bad!! Some are better than other's, some are out of this world, but, that is what makes Mark extra special for me, he just can't play a bad solo, he has to much feel, and such a great touch.

Totally agreed !!!

Has to be his solo on Tina Turner's Private Dancer.

[jbaent]

I heard many of that in many Sultans of swings live versions, sometimes some wrong notes, sometime some wrong combinations of scales, sometimes looks he wants to do something different at that very same moment and well, better don

[Pottel]

mmmm, but that is not what i mean jbaent, wrongnotes in a solo, i mean a record version which is just bad.

[Love Expresso]

Then it has to be Hill Farmer's Blues from the album - because it is way too short!

Finding a bad MK solo on record is virtually impossible.

But, and I cannot understand why, Planet of New Orleans never really grabs me. It's the only MK song with a lot of guitar that I'm not particularly fond of. Is he playing jazz notes or something? I don't know what it is.
