Sort of getting into the guitar solo thing :p only kidding -- it's not my first port of call -- but I did [start to] grow up in the 70's so heard a fair bit... Not so much a fan of 'Mayall et. al.', but like a lot of what I've heard from Cream:
Cream - Spoonful live version from a concert in Detroit, 1967

I like the MayAll blues guitar stuff. But his harmonica work is better. Of course for all time guitar nobody tops Hendrix in my book. Aside from the fuzz box and wah wah pedal stuff he had this poly-rhythmic thing going where he would accompany himself on the solos, live. I don't think necessarily a lead guitar solo has to be fast or wild. A lot of my friends were not impressed with the Traffic Low Spark guitar work. But I liked it. It was like the individual bent notes were funky even though not played in a bunch.
B.B. King was another style. Even though what he played was not technically difficult, he had such a feeling to it that it captured your attention. Made the guitar talk as they say. But Eric Clapton is definitely not boiled spinach either. :)

Phil Woods and Herbie Mann
