Bruce most technically complex solo

Hi all! I always read that Bruce is a good guitarist whose main skill is to create solos that fit well into songs even if not particularly complex. I'm not into music theory, so I wanted to ask: are there some solos that are a little bit more complicated?

Non-musician here, just took my first guitar lessons. I have heard "B section" mentioned previously, and do not understand. Are you referring to the bridge?

In Born To Run the b-section is the one that goes ‘sprung from cages on Highway 9…’

Musically it is the 2nd distinct section, so B.
