The solo is awesome, very EVH before EVH, ha ha. Ed's "When Push Comes to Shove" solo immediately came to mind listening to it. I always new Brian May was a great guitarist, but I've always been somewhat dismissive of Queen. Listening to this may cause me to reconsider. Wow, that Queen is sweet.

Probably that´s where Gibbons picket it up.
