In the canon of rock and roll, the guitar solo is held sacred. Arguements of "who's the best guitar player?" rage on in magazines and Web message boards across the world.

But what is the single WORST guitar (or other stringed-type) solo that you have ever heard? Could be intentional. Could just be incompetence. Extra points for YSI or streaming links.

My votes:
Bonzo Dog Band - "Fresh Wound"
and
Camper Van Beethoven - "Wasted"

Wasn't there a really bad (intentionally) git solo in Dr. Hook's Cover Of The Rolling Stone?

Any solo that lasts for more than a minute.

"smells like teen spirit" when i saw them do it live.
not sure if that counts.
and possibly that might just count as a brag.
