Battle of guitar solos: Fade to Black vs. Mr. Crowley?

[Texas King]

Two iconic metal guitar solos from the 80's. What do you prefer here and why?

If Randy Rhodes was an SEC AD, he'd schedule Kirk Hammett in the next to last game of the year every year.

I've got nothing against Kirk.... But come on. Really?

Mr. Crowley by a whole country full of country miles, a whole planet full of them and more, much more besides. And then add a zillion miles on top with a 10 billion light years bit in the middle!

Hmmm . . . beginning to think I'm in the minority on this one . . .

Easy vote for Randy Rhodes & Mr. Crowley.  Not close.

I think Kirk has better solos than Fade To Black. Mr. Cowley might be Randy’s brightest moment.
