Really? How? I mean did you use their licks and stuff, what do you actual think of when you sit down to make a new solo. Like for example your song with marcus where you had a duel solo, what did you have to do to come up with a solo for that? I really struggle with this stuff and it's the same with rhythm and riffs as well, nothing i've had i think is really good yet
In order to learn a cool sounding solo - you have to practice it over and over very hard (especially in the bgeinning). That process of practicing it over and over will not only increase the vocabulary in your hands - but laso in your brain. Also it will connect your brains and hands.
When I sat and listened to the backing of "soul to the world" - I uncounsciously had the choice between all the accumulated licks I have learned (and cross-overs between them etc). This, in combination with all the melodies from songs I have heard since I started listening to music is what enabled me to write the solo.
If you take an empty backing which you think sounds cool - and try to imagine a melody or solo in you head, can you come up with something?
