      I never start threads but watching the video for He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother got me thinking, what is your favourite guitar solo that Paul has played?

        House of Wax. And the second solo was even better than the first!

          I love his acoustic solo in "Somebody Who Cares." I agree that the solos in "House Of Wax" are stellar!

                    Short solo on "Promise To You Girl" is pretty good IMO.

                    Maybe I'm amazed !!

                          I was going to go with House of Wax but then I though it might be Rusty or Brian? I know the band played on that track.

                            I think at the time Rusty said Paul played the solos on House Of Wax, but live Rusty handled them. You're correct the band do play on House Of Wax.

                                  House of Wax would be a stand out for me. A shame he doesn't do guitar solos more often.

                                    Maybe I'm Amazed. Even George Harrison said he liked the guitar work in a 1970 interview.

                                            The guitar solo (Spanish guitar?) on "Dress Me Up As A Robber" is genius. Not sure who's playing it, though.
