My favorite sixty-four-foot solo is definitely "You Can't Do That". The whole song gave me the chills at age 15 and still does over forty years later.
"Boys" shows almost a "live in concert" level of excitement, and "I Saw Her Standing There" is quite unique for its day, with a solo that is pure exuberance with nothing owed to repetition of scales or rock/blues tradition.
Least? "Bad Boy" seems as if somebody was angry at someone else and begrudgingly gave them a few notes just to go with the flow.
"Mr. Moonlight" is dreary, dreadful. Odd that they would haul around a Vox Continental while on tour, when no way could it possibly "sound like the record" on this one, which is what kids wanted in those days.
Is that a solo on "Money"?
