He uses certain patches to complement the piece of music he's playing. He's the perfect melding of talent and technology. |

| | | | I love Al's playing. He's a BURNING musician.
Problem is, I can't stand some of those patches. I think what he's aiming for is very admirable, but the technology hasn't caught up with his vision yet.
Can't hate on him for being a pioneer, though. Go Al!!
Just my $0.02. |
