Dogs really gets overlooked, the whole piece is written by gilly and it's likely the most harmonically interesting track

The last 2 minutes of Pigs is probably my favorite along with the double solo on Money. But there are so many other great ones too.

The end of Pigs. There’s an aggressive feel to it that I really love

TIME....c'mon, everyone just loves the Confortably Numb one because they think it glorifies drug use. Its like the "Stairway" of Pink Floyd...done to death. The solo on Time is gutwrenching...the raw emotion and my God the TONE!!! Masterpiece

Take It Back. The solo has a beautiful ethereal vibe to it that gives shivers every time.

Mother's solo is great as well, very nice master piece!

Out of these on the list I choose comfortably numb, but my favourite is on the turning away. I think it's one of the most beautiful solos ever on really simple chords but because it's Gilmour he makes it soar like an angel. It's also the most David Gilmour solo in a way, since it has almost everything that makes his playing what it is in it.

Pigs (3 Different Ones) Just absolutely skywards

Dogs for me, it’s so emotional, strange, funky and full of attitude. I love David Gilmour as a guitarist and I feel he has the most of emotions in his playing. Him and Waters at their best in my opinion. I might be in the bottom of this poll, but for me it’s the top. Time is second runner up, as soon as you hear the clock alarm, you’re ready to go. it was a hard call for the two songs I’ve mentioned by Dogs winning out by a hair. It’s just that Dogs puts a tear in my eye every time.

Another Brick In the Wall Part 2 is my favorite solo of all time

I think the solo on Time is better than Comfortably Numb.

Dark Side Of The Moon is one of my all time favorite albums. I saw Pink Floyd perform this at Milwaukee County Stadium in 1973 when the album debuted! Won 2 free tickets for the show from fm radio station WZUU and had a blast. Only 12 years old at the time!

Did he do the guitar lap solo on High Hopes?

Once again I have to say Dogs is Pink Floyd at the Pinnacle of their careers. It's all of them at their very best It's Gilmore playing his best Dogs and the album Animals will go down one day in history as Pink Floyd's masterpiece which it most sincerely is

For me personally, the latter part of High Hopes is just the most beautiful outpouring of emotion I’ve heard from Gilmour. Utterly beautiful.

The entire Shine on Intro is just David Gilmour blessing our ears

The first time I heard the slide solo on Shine On in 1975 was what motivated me to learn how to play guitar.

I'm fully aware that "Echoes: Live From Pompeii" isn't on the list but that just may be my favorite Gilmour solo. I can't forget about "Hey You" either.
