'And Your Bird Can Sing' is my favorite Beatles song, but you can't narrow the guitar breaks to just one. "Till There Was You'' was awesome by George. The backwards "I'm Only Sleeping'' is brilliant. I like the acoustic riff at the beginning of 'Bungalow Bill', the list goes on. I think there should be a separate forum just for Polls. Its just gotten way out of hand and whoever puts them together is just slapping down some of their own favorites. Its ridiculous.

I did Taxman.

BTW, I don't think the acoustic riff at the beginning of "Bungalow Bill" is a guitar solo by George, or anyone. I read it's a Mellotron, a keyboard instrument that when you press a key a loop of tape plays. Although I never figured out, doesn't that mean someone had to play the solo to put on the tape in the first place?

I voted for And yr bird, cos I like the jangly 60's-ness of it, and I still feel excited to hear it, just like the first time!!

[Andy Smith]

And while I'm talking about it, does anyone else notice that at the end of I Feel Fine where it's fading out there's like this weird noise that kind of sounds like a dog barking? I don't know if it's just me, but if you turn it up loud, especially with headphones on, you can hear it perfectly clear.

yeah, if you listen to the actual bootleg of it without the fade, i think it's paul doing that noise.  

[Hello Goodbye]

Till There Was You

George even played the standards beautifully!

that was George's genius of guitar playing, so beautifully simple played!  

[TheBeatlesForever]

i really like and your bird can sing

[Revolver42]

I voted for The End.  All three taking times soloing and a drum solo from Ringo just before.  A fitting way to close a masterpiece of an album (not counting Her Majesty) and a legendary career.

[Oh Pineapple]

"And Your Bird Can Sing" is a pretty nice song.
I like the intro a lot.

[Spier]

I also voted for The End. First the drum solo preparing the way for the other three Beatles to show off their very distinctive guitar styles. Absolutely fantastic!

[Andy Smith]

strangely enough some of my fav guitar breaks are played by John:
You Can't Do That and Get Back.  

[Oh Pineapple]

I like George's bass.
He usually had some sweet guitar breaks.

[Spier]

My all-time favourite Beatles guitar break is Drive My Car. The punchy intro and the fabulous solo. Stunning.

[Oh Pineapple]

I like when they go "Beep, beep" in that song...
hah

[Okay]

The End is pretty amazing.
