I thought of this question when listening to "Stairway to Heaven" in the car this morning. It has a really good guitar solo 3/4ths the way through, that bridges to the heavy part of the song. - me
The long bridge in the middle of Dogs off of Pink Floyd's Animals. Doesn't matter where I am, but I can't stop myself from attempting to mimic it when I hear it. - Mark Trapp

Lou Reed, The Velvet Underground, I Heard Her Call My Name; ultra-minimalist choice: Neil Young, Cinnamon Girl - Sean McBride
The guitar solo on Harry Connick, Jr.'s "Booker" was actually played by Harry himself, as is every instrument on that song, which makes it even more impressive. - Dave Roth

Isn't Robert Fripp the guy who did the default theme sounds for Vista? ;) I already know that Brian Eno did them for Windows NT, 98, ME, 2K and XP. - Me
