best beatle guitar solos (3 phases)

[chris]

here is what i am asking of you...

i want three songs. one from each era; early period, middle period and late period.

early: all my loving. always been a fan anyway of this solo. but something about it stands out even more when live, on BITUS, the solo was note for note perfect. i like when bands improvise. but the fact that they didn't here on this one...stands out

middle: good morning, good morning. as electricly explosive as george ever gets.

late: let it be (album version). makes the single version sound tinny and almost not there.

I do believe, like "Taxman", and in a similar style so well described by you as "electricly explosive", that the "Good Morning Good Morning" guitar solo is actually played by Paul McCartney, and not George Harrison.

I think deep down I knew that. But (as I tip my hat to you) thank you for the correction.

And I won't let the fact that it wasn't George deter me from choosing that one as a great solo. Not that you were suggesting I do so.

Can't really think of a better pick for the first two eras, though I will be racking my brain on this. I'd have to say, though not a traditional guitar solo I'd go with the intro to Something. I know most people would not consider it a "guitar solo" but it is one of my favorite openings to any song.

Fun topic, Chris.

Early: Roll over beethoven from the (unreleased) BBC, with the double-length guitar solo. He kills it.

Middle: Good morning, Good morning or Taxman

Late: While my guitar (I know, i know, but it is an awesome solo) or something
