I'll start with these two....

That's what I'm talking about. The second one was "ok" IMO, but I really liked the Cantrell one. Something I hadn't heard before.

gotta like this song

Robert Plant's Big Log was the first one that came to mind. Yeah, I know, the title sounds bad, the words "big log" are not in the lyrics, and I have no idea why it's called Big Log, but the song is an absolute mellow masterpiece. If I'm stuck in heavy traffic and am about to have a psychotic break, I put this song on. It's like musical xanax.

Ironically, I largely detest Led Zeppelin. But goddamn I love this song.

Great pick Fraz, that song absolutely creates its own world to get lost in

Not technically solo since it was recorded under Slipknot, but he's performing it solo here.

Funny. That's the first song I thought of for this thread too.
