What is the first guitar solo you remember catching your attention?

My Dad was a huge country fan (and a damn fine musician) and I grew up listening to Johnny, Buck, and Merle. The sounds of that era have left a lasting impression on me.

I grew up watching Hee Haw and so Roy Clark and Buck Owens were the first guitar players I remember, along with Cash, Merle, Willie, and any other kind of honky-tonk.

I remember this Roy Clark bit from when I was a kid. I saw it again recently showing DVDs to my kid and she enjoyed it as well. He's so damn talented it's ridiculous.

Grand Funk Live album, mid to late 60's I guess....don't remember the song but there was an extended guitar solo....blew my mind at the time.

I remember Junior's "is my alligator dry yet?" raising the roof when we watched it one night in the '60s. Stupidist thing in the world.
