Share songs with great dual lead guitar melodies

Yesterday I was revisiting one of my favorite underrated heavy psych bands, Ryte, and was really liking this song of theirs—probably in part due to the dual lead guitar melodies that I think intertwine and harmonize quite nicely throughout the track:

I’d say that my favorite instance of this phenomenon in their song “Monolith” can be heard just after one minute into the track, where the guitarists play melodies together in harmony with jazz-like percussion in the background.

 

Another example from my Spotify library is this live version of “In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed” from the Allman Brothers Band’s At Fillmore East album, where you can hear the two guitarists playing together (starting at about 1:25 in the song), creating a dual lead that at times amplifies the melody, creates harmonies, or works together in counterpoint:

A third example from my Spotify library is “Master Of Puppets” by Metallica; starting at about 3:52 in the song, the two guitarists play a harmonized lead that I think sounds great, too:

Do you enjoy listening to any songs with dual guitar melodies as well? If so, feel free to share!
