Maybe you all have already touched on this under the heading "soloing/techinque-wise", but Angus's left hand VIBRATO is what always stood out to me, aside from his tone. About as perfect for rock as there is IMHO.

Page is the sloppiest live soloist of all-time. His studio work is pretty great though. D'yer Mak'er, Going to California, Babe I'm Going to Leave You(or whatever the title is), Tangerine. Angus is a great rock and roll soloist. He doesn't seem impromptu, which isn't a bad nor good thing. He is just really steady. |

You know, as much as I hate Jimmy Page (somewhere between ' all-encompassingly' and 'with the white-hot burning of a thousand suns'), in terms of sloppy live soloing, I think the crown truly belongs to this guy:

As for "advanced" guitar playing, take a listen to this great technical monster solo from Scotty Moore. — |

Which of course doesn't mean that they are bad solos. I learned the solo to Cinnamon Girl in in 1 minute or less and it's a great one. |
