      What’s your favorite solo by J on any of his
      studio albums? I especially like these:

      Over your shoulder, without a sound
      Thumb, Green Mind
      Start Choppin, Where you been

      As far as concert solos go, that’s a different story. "What else is new" is always a killer solo when you see it live.

        Every solo that is mercifully brief, like the one in Freakscene. Gosh, what a strange question.

            I agree with ‘Start Choppin’ (1st solo), ‘Get Me’, ‘Drawerings’.
            What about the one in ‘Nothin’s Goin On’?
            It gives me the creeps every time I listen to it…

              Drawerings and Get me are definetely right up there. And I totally second Nothin’s Goin’On. It’s just plain genius. The Wagon is also one of my favourites, gets me every time. And I mustn’t forget Just Like Heaven. It’s one of the best covers of all time. And the guitar is, as you guessed, heaven.

                My favorites are ones that are really lyrical and melodic

                Lung
                Get Me
                Just Like Heaven
                Wagon
                I live for that look

                        <FONT>Alone. One of the best on the albums and amazing live.

                            not really a studio album track though.

                            Dagnammit read the questions, boy!

                            OK – maybe Over Your Shoulder, Ammaring, Thumb or I live for that look.

                                  I think the solos I most enjoy are these:
                                  -Alone
                                  -Thumb
                                  -Get me
