"Ten Years After" has some great songs. The band really is highly underrated.

Probably the edge killing it towards the end of "discotheque"

Buck Dharma is underrated.
Yeah, I have a hook and cross tattoo. I hate when random people ask what it is because it always leads to "MORE COWBELL!"

Pink Floyd (David Gilmour) - Comfortably Numb (Pulse version is #1 for me)
Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
Ledzep - Stairway to Heaven (one of my least favorite songs by them, but its iconic)
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird
Van Halen - Eruption
Ozzy (Randy Rhoads) - Crazy Train
SRV - Texas Flood
Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Child
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (would not be near my top 10, but undeniably iconic)
Derek and the Dominoes (Clapton/Allman) - Layla
While many of these are not my actual favorites, they all belong on this list, because you can't find many that are more "iconic."

Stairway - Zep
Sweet Home Alabama - Skynyrd
Sweet Child O' Mine - GNR
November Rain - GNR
Comfortably Numb - Floyd
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
Mr. Crowley - Rhoads
Fade To Black - Metallica
Blue on Black - KWS
Eruption - EVH
Time - Floyd

Stranglehold - Nugent
La Grange - Gibbons
While My Guitar Gently Weeps - Clapton
Sultans of Swing - Knopfler
Heartbreaker - Zep
All Along the Watchtower - Hendrix
You cant consider a song that has a lead guitar lick as the melody (Voodoo Child, Layla). I also dont think it could be in a song where it's literally lead playing the entire song (Texas Flood, Still Got the Blues). The solo must be unique and grab you.
And it pains me to say that as SRV and Moore are far and away my two favorite players ever and are my main inspiration.

He didn't actually play it in BTTF, he learned the riffs for the movie and intended to do it for real, but decided he couldn't pull it off. So while his fretting during the performance in the movie is pretty accurate, the actual sound was overdubbed by the guitar teacher that taught him the riffs.
