    I think I prefer the latter.

    Why? My ears don't like receiving a barrage of ugly notes.

    That's why I prefer guitarists like David Gilmour over the likes of Malmsteem and what not.

    I like slow, emotional, and impressionistic solos, like this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9ohBMozCzI

    Beautiful.

    A virtuoso guitar solo. A solo that is played within tempo and rhythm. No offense to metalheads, I have respect for metal as a genre, but some of those guitarist tend to play fast for the sake of playing fast, rather than by virtuosity and feel.

    I like the solo in that song Blackbird from Alterbridge
    I think that would be classified as slow but meaningful

    I like both but my favorite guitar solo is in Mordecai by Between the Buried and Me and it's relatively slow.

    The WORST musical passages, in my opinion are the "Diarrhea of the hands" guitar parts. Too many notes= no thank you. You should ALWAYS have an ear for phrases, questions, answers, singable melodies. Those are the best. In my totally biased opinion.

    If you can't sing it... or you can't recall the melody, then whats the point? Im looking at you virtuoso/metalheads/shredders. Yuck.

    Im sorry, I thought this was a realistic shooter.

    Depends on my mood I guess, but generally I'm not a huge fan of solos.
