Hmm, good topic. If i were a:
Guitarist: I'd love to be able to master Frippertronics, that or Roine Stolt's soloing on The Flower King's epic "Big Puzzle".
Bassist: The lines from "Fracture" by King Crimson or the lines from "De Futura" by Magma....Or "The Fish". 
Drummer: Frank Zappa's "Don't You Ever Wash That Thing?" (drums and percussion simultaneously  ), "Ticks & Leeches" by Tool or of course "O'Baterista".
Keyboard/Related: The organist from Crazy World Of Arthur Brown
is a bit good (all their first album as great playing), or to perfect
"Tarkus".
Flute: Nothing is better then a good flute solo!
"Arborescene" by Ozric Tentacles, "I Talk To The Wind" by King Crimson
or Jethro Tull's "Cross-Eyed Mary" are all great. |
If you like good flute, then you should listen to "Fairy Tales" by
Mother Gong. It has lots of flute on it, with solos too, and the flute
solo at the end of "The Pied Piper of Hamlin" is absolutely incredible.

Why are you asking me? How should I know?
Anyway, as to the original question, I would be a multi-instrumentalist (keyboards, guitar, bass, drums and vocals - I'd let someone else play flute just to be generous) and be able to play Supper's Ready. Oh yeah!!!!

Its gotta be the guitar part from La Villa, Exit...Stage Left version.
I figure if I could play that solo like that, chicks might dig me 
Not prog, but I always wanted to play slide well enough to pull off Led Zep's In My Time Of Dying.
One song that I HAVE actually been working on for about 10 years now is
DiMeola's Egyptian Danza. I've almost got it sounding recognizable now!

Funeral for a friend - Elton John -the piano !!
Dance on a volcano - Genesis - the guitar/taurus pedal parts Mike Rutherford plays..
