"Serial Killer" has to be his most technically proficient work.
Agreed - Serial Killer is an awesome song!?
I really enjoy both Snakepit albums (especially the second album).? ?It's Five O'Clock Somewhere is good, and for a long time, I thought it was far superior to Ain't Life Grand.? After listening to the second album for awhile, it really grew on me.? There's some great guitar work on it!
Although Slash's GNR riffs are the best imo, the Snakepit albums are seriously underrated.?
?
Ain't Life Grand could have been better if Rod Jackson wasn't such a tool and his lyrics weren't sooooo fucking terrible..

True, the lyrics could use some improvement, but I feel Slash's guitar work makes up for it on some of the songs. Despite Rod being a "tool", I definitely like his voice better than Eric Dover's or, for that matter, Scott Weiland's.
In any event, there are some good riffs on all the albums - hard to pick a winner.

For me it was always the solo to DTJ. it's the perfect solo in my opinion, especially how he "morphed" that solo live into Voodoo Child, then went to Civil War afterwards.

The lyrics on Snakepit II were the MOST mature lyrics any Slash band has ever recorded!!!
There wasn't any whining or haterate crap on that album (not saying there is any on Snakepit I or VR).

Hmmmm
My favorite solo of all time is Sweet Child O Mine so I will Start there... Honestly though, all the lead playing on Appetite is amazing....
I also love the acoustic solos on "Your Crazy" and "One In A Million"...
I
think over for an over all song "Loco-motive" is just a masterpiece guitarwise (It's a masterpeice in all other aspects too).. From beginning to end it is just Slash at his absolute best.. Also his best work on UYI's
The first Snakepit had some Killer Slash stuff too.... "Neither Can I" is a great guitar song that comes to mind and he tears it up on "Soma City Ward" too...
Someone mentioned the "You Got No Right" solo which is up there with his best as far as I am concerned...? "Dirtly Little Thing" also....
He always tears the shit up during "Knockin On Heavens Door" live... The acoustic version from Argentina is great... But I have some boots from Illusions when he just goes off forever.. "Ilegal I Song" live is just great too....
The collaboration with Lenny Kravitz on "Always On The Run" is awesome too....
It is too hard to pick one favorite so there are a few that came to mind....
gotta throw in the Slither riff? too?
Hmm, for me his best work on the UYI was Coma, riffing and soloing, but i gotta admit that i have so much fun playin locomotive, might be my second pick and third, Civil war tied with Don?t Damn Me

I can play parts of it, not the whole song, but it's definitely fun to play.

Locomotive has got to be the most complex Slash song ever. There is so much going on there. The Sweet Child solo is simply perfection. Cannot be topped. Paradise City outro solo is the fastest I have ever heard Slash. Coma too. Neither Can I and Back and Forth Again are great as well. It is hard to pick a favorite from my favorite player.
Here is Locomotive live with Beck.

they are so different, it's like weiland to axl in sound... I think anyone can like one of those albums, such different singers..
Speaking of slash's greatest works, just listen to UYI 1, he owns that fucking album....
There's times I could care less about the song, but the riffs and solos are amazing

You can play Loco-Motive?

Hehe yeah, luckly i can and as i say, it?s really fun doing, it took me sometime to learn it, don?t think it was easy, and after all the work put into it, it was definitely worth it, hehe
It?s one of the songs i practice always so i don?t ever forget it, and it?s a great finger warmer, at least for me

Agreed... There are some songs on those albums where the vocals just get under my skin these days... Some are still classic though too.

For me there are songs like the garden where I am just in awe of the guitar work... Blistering solos, deep long solos.. Everytime I listen to coma it's like wow....
