# The Best Europe Guitar Solos > The 18 best Europe guitar solos, ranked. #1 is The Final Countdown (1986), then Superstitious and Seven Doors Hotel. Every video starts at the solo. Canonical URL: Europe are best remembered for a synth fanfare, but John Norum's fluid, Schenker- and Moore-inspired leads gave the Swedes real six-string credibility. Kee Marcello brought a slicker shred edge in the late eighties before Norum returned to anchor the band's heavier modern era.
