Slash's chops are in fine form but he gave the solo his own feel. The album version has one of the greatest guitar solos of all time.

I love holy diver & rainbow in the dark. Yea love that solo & it's not even close to being the best on the album! Don't talk to strangers is the best song ever!

Vivian Campbell was amazing. Saw him & the Dio band, Last in Line, a couple of years ago. One of the best gigs ive ever seen. Campbell's got cancer or had, haven't heard from him in a while. Amazing as he is he's still probably only the 3rd or 4th greatest guitarist this island has produced (Rory g of course is the greatest guitarist ever, not just from Ireland)

Now that's interesting to say the least.

Agreed Divney...Rainbow in the Dark was killer.

No doubt. That Holy Diver album was incredible. Great guitar work and legendary vocals.
