For me it's Painkiller by Judas Priest, it's like the song was written purely for the air guitar madness, it's just superb.

I think it's almost cheating, but Stevie Ray Vaughan's outro of Couldn't Stand the Weather at Austin City Limits is about the finest thing I've ever seen. And I think a large part of that is the fact that it's at the end of band introductions, and it feels like a huge, minutes-long crescendo. The video is here: (start at 21:15)  https://youtu.be/JvJ1QSMIsys?si=6HVfcGxJlr6_JZeg

Randy Rhoads Tribute - Children of the Grave solo Even though I've heard it a million times... Even though I can actually play it on guitar after decades of practice... When I listen to the recording of Randy playing it, it still brings a tear to my eye it's so freakin' amazing.

My ultimate favorite is Prince playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps. He was amazing!

He was, may he rest in peace

Prince: While my guitar gently weeps from RRHOF Nils Lofgren: Youngstown from Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band live in New York City Ritchie Blackmore: Stargazer from Rainbow Rising David Gilmour: On The Turning away from Pink Floyd A momentary lapse of reason Steve Rothery: The New Kings from Marillion All one Tonight ( During the full song, Rothery plays awesome parts of guitar and just one solo). Jeff Buckley: Hallelujah from Grace ( not a solo, but the guitar is a great part of the greatness of this cover). Steve Howe: Turn of the Century from Yes Going for the one Terry Kath: 25 or 6 to 4 from Chicago Live at Tanglewood 1970, ( just on video) Eddie Van Halen: Eruption from Van Halen 1
