              Wow, good timing. I was just sitting here with guitar in hand.

              It's amusing that the lastest song on the list is GNR :). Allow me to add some
              classic classics and some newer classics :)

              Panama - Van Halen
              Girls Girls Girls - Motley Crue
              Money - Pink Floyd
              Enter Sandman - Metallica
              Piece of Mind - Boston
              War Pigs - Sabbath

                  Had to go for Jimi, but I would happily have voted 'all'.

                  Would also throw in:

                  Cult of Personality - Living Color
                  While My Guitar Gently Weeps - Beatles/Clapton
                  Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
                  Badge - Cream (plenty of other candidates from Cream, but this one is so perfect)
                  People Get Ready - Jeff Beck/Rod Stewart
                  Surfing With the Alien - Joe Satriani
                  Soul Sacrifice (Woodstock version) - Santana band
                  Blues for Salvador - Carlos Santana
                  Little Martha - Duane Allman (and pretty much anything by the ABB)

                            cool song, but not enough tension for my taste, just too plain

                              Oh the song ain't my favourite, but I worship that riff ;)
