I love the final part of The Ministry of Lost Souls, I started listening to them with this song...let me know :) Live in the moment, breathe in a new beginning Wisdom revealed, as I unlearn to learn Life's biggest battles often are fought alone My spirit brings me home...

There are too many amazing ones to choose from though. ______________________________________________________________________ "And that is why I will never wear suspenders in public."

Really, all of his solos are incredible, but those two stand out the most to me. ♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♫♩♫♩♬♫♩♬♪ The ANABASIS

I like how it has a more rock/fusion vibe, build nicely, and plays over key changes. Voices is up there too for me. I think the ending solo of Octavarium is the most dramatic and perhaps UAGM is the most fun.

We had this discussion on Guitar World forums a while back, and all my friends IRL agree: The solo from Hollow Years at Live at Budokan is the greatest. It just can't be surpassed. Not only is it virtuosic and amazing to watch, the melodies and phrases he uses are just perfect. For me it defeintely takes the cake for the best solo he's ever performed.

If I had to rank some of them, The Spirit Carries On is next. Amazing feeling, and still gets the shred in there. Amazing.

Both showcase a lot of versatility in his playing however I, like many of you, just love to listen to him play. Another one worthy to mention is on the Live in Japan DVD and takes place at the end of To Live Forever. He also does some great playing on The Explorer's Club CD entitled Age of Impact. I'll stop now before I continue to list every song on every album....
