Guitar playing and feeling : part 2 the virtuoso


Quoted for truth from youtube:

"It really grinds my gears when somebody says a guitarist isn't playing with feeling, just because they're not playing the blues, and it's very narrow minded and ignorant to think that way. Theres other feelings besides sadness(the blues),such as excitement and giddiness and happiness, and playing fast is a way of expressing those feelings."

Just watch this completely(to see the middle part where it gets 100% intense ) and See for yourselves

I love the Blues - Clapton, and I love Shredding too - Steve Vai. But what I like the most is a mixture of Blues & Hard Rock - Slash

What's essential is that the music touch your feelings...

Its a matter of taste though...
