 The guitar solo in Metallica's The Unforgiven is definitely in the top 5 of all time. 

Change my mind.

 Metallica’s Creeping Death is way better. 

Change my mind.

 It's good, but it's just raw speed. 

The Unforgiven solo shows a way deeper musicality and has an elegance that Creeping Death is missing.

 Okay, speed and energy, less mature, point taken. 

But… what about that solo from Am I Evil?

 November Rains outro puts the solo to shame.

 💯
For those that have not listen to it:
the guitar solo starts around minute 3:20

 YES! And particularly the run that happens at about 4:06. Not technically that hard, but so jazzy for being a metal song.

Angus on this solo starting at minute 2:28 approx is probably in the top 10 of all times
