JBJ - I believe

"Sambora's face is a mask of joyous disbelief, as if previously unaware of his ability to play the instrument at all. Reaching the last fistful of notes, he does a fair impression of a man who is actually ejaculating into his jet black flares."

That's why I say they are here and there brillant - not all over the record and I agree there are previous albums which have better guitars. But it's not that much about solo-ing but about something the rythm part has like for example MY GUITAR LIES BLEEDING IN MY ARMS or HEY GOD.
Some solo's do also kick ass.

IMO they simply are the best. I listen to SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN and that scream sounds as if it came out of hell...really.

Than MY GUITAR LIES BLEEDING IN MY ARMS which as again just amazing vocals.

HEY GOD - come on, I think it has some of the most difficult vocal part BJ have ever recorded.
And It also gives me the feeling that every songs has appropiate vocals which is not the case with any other record. I mean from BJ to BOUNCE, there are songs which would have sounde better with different vocals. NOT on THESE DAYS.
