One of my all-time ...
.
... favorites:
This has what I consider to be one of the three or four best guitar solos ... ever. I've heard that one of the hallmarks of a good solo is that the phrasing is excellent; that is, the ability of the human voice to "track" the notes. Regardless, it's good ... really good.
Now Rob Halford sounds like he's slipping a little ... his highs sound strained. They're still way better than Metallica!

Dropping like flies ...
The older I get, the more I notice that artists I grew up with are dying.
Gerry Rafferty, RIP.
Yes, he was a pop singer, and I'm more of a metal kind of guy, but in my opinion, the lead break on 'Baker Street' is one if the nicest, most appropriate that have ever been recorded.
