Well, technically it didn't cross my mind whilst making that post, but I don't think you could class any of Deaky's playing in that song as a guitar solo [/QUOTE]
I agree with you for misfire but I think the acoustic solo of "who needs you" was played by john...

First of all i wanna say thank for the uploaders of this extraordinary track and everyone involved in the process.
Now, regarding "Who needs you" Brian already stated that it was him playing the guitar. GUITAR PLAYER MARCH 2012, wich can be find on his site
"Some other songs where you didn't play your Red Special include "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" solo, which was a Tele, "Long Away," which also had the Burns electric 12, and "Who Needs You," which featured that funky, buzzy nylon-string. What's up with that guitar?
Brian - "I have no idea where that guitar came from. The song just seemed to need a proper Spanish guitar, rather than a regular steel-string acoustic. So we found one and I played it but I can't tell you what it was. I'm very un-snobbish about guitars. It doesn't matter what they're called or where they come from. If they sound good at that point in time, that's it. A lot of the acoustic stuff that we've done was played on very cheap old things I had lying around, but I just liked the particular sound. I've never played anything expensive, in terms of an acoustic guitar. I know that for sure. A lot of the people around me had these wonderful old Martins and things, but they wouldn't make the sort of noise that I needed."

I thought someone here would mention it but no one did!
This is the same version that features on the Highlander incidental music, the Bar scene most precisely

The Highlander version definitely isn't the same as this Townhouse version. It has the same alternate sax solo, granted, but it's not the same. It sounds like other than the sax solo it uses the final version (in obviously edited form) as its framework.

That's the tricky part, to figure out if it's the same part or just an edit...
Same goes for Princes of the Universe (Early Master - Townhouse) shared here, it also features at the beggining of the movie, definately edited but quite the same version IMO

It's an edit that mostly follows the "demo" version's framework here up until the last chord that ends on a droning note.

I was wrong about 'Who Needs You' and I think I'd admitted that a while ago.
Anyway, I also think 'One Year of Love' is Brian.

Fair enough Seb.
Are you still convinced that John contributes harmonies on various studio recordings though?...;)
