Now, in the world of progressive, folk, jazz, and metal rock music, guitar solos are rather common, so to win the “great guitar solo, man” award takes a rather special performer and performance.
Kristoffer Gildenlöw released Empty in February, and it is a staggering album, his guitar work was so supreme that I had two of the tracks there shortlisted for this award.
I decided upon End of The Road. The album can be purchased from https://kristoffergildenlow.bandcamp.com/album/empty
