I'm pretty sure this list is album/original versions only, and to be honest, looking at the songs on the list, I don't think the
original I'm So Afraid end solo from the White Album is worthy of being in the top 100.
If the Dance version (which so obviously is not an "improvised" solo anyway, it sounds waaay too rehearsed.....would make sense though seeing as he knew they were gonna make an album out of it) was the original studio version, then I personally would have placed it in there, as it's one of the most powerful solos (and pieces of music) I have ever heard, but I could understand if it was missing simply because of lack of fame.
However, what I don't understand is why The Chain and/or Go Your Own Way are missing from the list...by the looks of it the list is a mixture of technically amazing solos and/or simply worldwide famous solos....and both those solos definitely qualify for the latter.
Oh well.....
