At the moment I can name 3 of them: Princess of the Dawn (Do I have to explain?) Russian Roulette (You can hear the same but a bit still different melody from the two sides of the stereo.) Screaming for a Love Bite (This one is full of melody So let me know guys what is your fave

Fast As A Shark has the best solo. Other great ones are Like A Loaded Gun, Do It, Starlight, London Leatherboys, Fight It Back, Head Over Heels, Love Child, Turn Me On, Losers And Winners, Guardian Of The Night, Metal Heart, Too High To Get It Right, Wrong Is Right, T.V. War, Monsterman, Aiming High, Stand Tight, Generation Clash, Walking In The Shadow, Another Second To Be, Slaves To Metal, I Don't Wanna Be Like You, This One's For You, Death Row...there are couple of them. I don't have the energy to list more of the songs which have good solos. ;D One thing which was one of the great trademarks of Accept is great solos and quite complicated solos. What can I say? There is only one Wolf Hoffmann in the world.

You can name more than 3 John! I ain't so cruel to allow no more than 3 solos ;D I have forgotten the excellent twin-solo of Wrong is Right which is in the line of you Mika. Shame on me

Well, all the ones mentioned up until now are my favourites so to say, my additions would though be Burning (especially in the Stying Alife version) and Crossroads.

Yeah, that too. Hmm, maybe it isn't Fast As A Shark which has the best solo, but Sodom And Gomorra.

And what's up with Just By My Own? The whole song is a great solo from the beginning to the end

His solos are tunes in the tune with preamble, body and close - like a novel. They are less about the technic but much more about the melody. You can sing or whistle them. They are very "listener-friendly" or somethin'... Wolf rules
