After all these years the guitar piece that I love the most, and in the world of wishful thinking, most wish I could have composed, is "Jessica" by Dickey Betts. Closing in on 40 years and I never get enough of it.

So what does it for you guys?

All of them, so I could collect the royalties--hey--I'd give some to charity.

Either Dust in the Wind by Kansas or Blackbird by The Beatles.

I'm a sucker for fingerpicking :P

I'd say "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd. David Gilmour's guitar solo is legendary and absolutely amazing every single time you hear it.

hmmm? Would have to be... Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad...or just about anything else from the Layla album...and of course Crossroads by Cream.

I think I could even skip any royalties...I'd just spend it on guitars and amps anyways!
