It's good
But what you're really hearing on that is the bass - whichever of the Van Zants that didn't die of drugs or planes was a splendid bassist who pushed the most talented one up.

Best implies that it is quantifiable, rather than mere preference

well not really, no
'Best' isn't necessarily subjective. 'Favourite' is.
Favourite solo this week is prolly Horses by Palace, even though Palace at that point was Slint with Will Oldham on vocals. So that, or Washer by Slint. Or I'm Broken by Pantera. I also find ostentatious displays of virtuosity to be gay as fuck, which is why Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen etc are utter shit.

Best is transitory.
How can we define when our icons have no fixed base?

'Favourite' isn't.

I 'quite liked' their first album at the time
But at the time my entire record collection was packed into boxes while we were decorating.

It can only ever come down to that
You can't compare things that are brilliant in their own way, often with conflicting reasons for being so good.

That solo on Wichita Lineman always gets me.
I fucking love that song. And By The Time I Get To Phoenix.

Posting from a phone, so not bothering with youtube
You'll have to name your tracks, so I can judge your choices.
Although this won't work if I don't know the song and need to hear it

Bedtime for the atrocious KKK man
A little bit of Paisley Underground for you - if you're going for subculture, beat this.
