Rock Out! Best Ever Air Guitar Song Sunday March 26, 01:25 PM
Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven the been voted the ultimate guitar solo of all time. The Jimmy Page epic beat the likes of Guns N' Roses' Paradise City and Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Child to best air guitar moment. The solo was voted for by almost 2,000 readers of Total Guitar magazine.
Despite never being released as a single, the 1971 song remains one of the most-played rock songs ever.
It has been covered by everyone from Dolly Parton to Rolf Harris.
Other tracks in the top 10 include The Eagles' Hotel California, Cream's Crossroads, Ozzy Osbourne's Crazy Train and Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
Total Guitar editor Stephen Lawson said: "Absolutely everyone loves to play air guitar when they hear the moment in a song where the guitarist rocks out.
"I'm not surprised that Stairway to Heaven is number one - not only is Jimmy Page's solo incredibly ballsy and a little bit flash, but it is also brilliantly structured."
