Favorite guitar solo

What is your favorite guitar solo of all time? This doesn't necessarily mean what solo you find to be the "best," but rather what just does it for you because of the style, emotion of the playing, a personal connection, etc.

To start, I'd have to say my favorite solo ever is by David Gilmour in Pink Floyd's Time. Technically, he doesn't do anything amazing in this solo. It's just the sound and the feeling of the thing. His guitar is just on the brink of feeding back, giving the solo a sense of urgency (which goes along with the lyrics of the song), yet it is quasi-laid back and mellow. The solo just seems to be very emotional, very thought out, and not a note is wasted.
