Talent doesn't make good music.

Is it techniquly demanding ? yes , but what does that mean , nothing. I still like players with more feeling in their playing rather than having someone who could just play a million notes per second. |

Anyway "virtuoso guitar" doesn't have anything to do with being a fast shredder, "I can't play faster than you thing." I agree with Vai and Satriani being virtuosos but Michael Angelo and Yngwie are different things. (I can sense the typical but yngwie has classical training argument coming)
If you want "virtuoso guitar" check out
Marty Friendman's Dragon's Kiss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2is4GtX6cs
Tony Mc. Alpine Maximum Security http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB9iGH-qyII
that's something I can appreciate more as a musician

I figured because we're talking about guitar, i could post a musing i recently had, feel free to weigh in or something.

It doesn't blow my mind either.  |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada | | | I often like virtuouso "shredding" as I often find lots of emotion inside of it (even Yngwie at times) but I cannot stand Michael Angelo Batio for the life of me. Most tend to be more melodic but Batio is almost completely rhythmic in the sense that its just speed, and nothing more. |
