Two fine examples there and yes, I would like to hear more of it these days too.
Nicely crafted solos do still exist if you go wide of the norm, cult melodic rock bands such as Harem Scarem, Eclipse etc...
The UFO solo was great though, hadn't heard that before.
The art has not been lost by any stretch, but it depends where you are looking. I've been really enjoying Andy James' stuff lately. He's got a good ear for a melody and can shred like a beast when necessary. Great feel to his playing.
However, for a change, try this - it's quite stunning at the end- just so wonderfully melodic.

Although I was thinking more of guitar solos which fit into and embellish a song, rather than instrumental guitar music.
Of course there are exceptions, I loved Dave Brons first Album as he had a strong focus on melody lines with emotion, there is some flash but the song comes first.
