ok this is how it goes
i was at my friends and i was forced to watch an ACDC dvd and a particular song caught my eye cuz of the guys one-handed playing....i decided to try and play and found it challenging, but its a simple riff that i can work on that'll improve my speed and technique
what songs would you recommend for building on guitar skills?

if you are looking to build speed and technique for lead guitar work, i would recommend picking guitarists that you see as inspirational. take any musician, doesn't even have to be a guitarist, who you wish you could play like and learn one of their solos. you may have to play it down tempo at first, but be sure to use a metronome and don't take any shortcuts. after you have ran through a few solos, you will find that the examples you used to build your technique are now part of your playing. those riffs in all the jerry cantrell solos i learned at 16 are still in my repetoire for when i improv. take the influence of these artists and then use it to define your own style. create your own riffs and practice them at different speeds...play quarter notes, eigth notes, triplets, and 16th notes and increase speed gradually, but always make sure you are playing clean before you move on.
...i have been deprived of internet lately, and this is my rant to get out my typing surplus.
