1. Jimi Hendrix - The Star Spangled Banner
2. David Gilmour _The Fletcher Memorial Home
3. Jimmy Page - I Can't Quit You Babe (Coda version)
4. Eric Clapton - Hideaway
5. Jeff Beck - Space For The Papa
6. Alex Lifeson - Limelight
7. Brian May - One Vision
8. Steve Howe -Heart Of The Sunrise
9. Eddie Van Halen - Eruption/You Really Got Me
10.Chet Atkins - Oh Lonesome Me

That is a damn fine list!
