My teenage son is asking me to source out some tunes for him that feature guitar such as: 'I Forgot to be your lover' by William Bell. It's his current favourite.

He is into rap, hip-hop, grime, R n B etc. (at the moment!)

As those of you with adolescent children know, parents tastes are rarely and if so, grudgingly given any kudos, so I thought who better to turn to than the brilliantly extensive knowledgable soul source community to come up with some songs.

Soundclips, if possible, would of course be much appreciated (don't know if this in correct topic, could go in 'look at your box')

So come on folks, what are your favourite tunes with guitar solos in?

First thing that comes to mind for me is "(They Call Me) The Wrong Man" by Tony Clarke - great rocky guitar break, intense....just like the song

The Champion - Willie Mitchell

awesome guitar in that

exits - got to have money

shane

Dont it make ya`feel funky,and Stompa.

Robert Parker-Barefootin

Ed

One that's closer in style to William Bell is the guitar on the Star-Tells "Falling In Love".

Stuart

"reach out" instrumental version by Lee Moses. With strong guitar and ""massive"" drumbreak

( Hip Hop kids will love it)

Thanks everyone for your replies so far. Much appreciated. Soundfiles would be great though. He is keen to hear the tunes and has been checking thiis site himself! Meanwhile he is looking out for the ones already suggested, so thanks once again and i'll keep you posted on which ones he likes best.

Surely the best guitar break in the history of soul music is either Marv Tarplin's intro to the Miracles 'Tracks Of my Tears' or Reggie Young's 6-note tremolo at the beginning of James Carr's "The Dark End Of The Street"...

joe matthews - aint nothing you can do

Guitar Ray "your gonna wreak my life".

Well it has got a guitar in

www.soulclub.org is great for looking up tunes.

Who's That Lady - The Isley Bros (not the slower version)

and

Two People - Stop Leave My Heart Alone
