Metheny's a great guitarist, and there's some good stuff, but for me it gets uninteresting real fast, particularly when he starts playing fast licks. I'm not about licks. But i respect him. And I haven't heard the new album. |

I found the same problem with his stuff..his fast playing borders on Satriani, Vai excessess...he will get nice atmospheres goin and then he starts wailing...i am like..bye |

right on. have to be able to hear the notes or something. There are a couple of fast players I tolerate, django reinhardt for one. But the fast stuff is usually in short, terse and well-composed bursts. And I saw michael brecker play once. Amazing speedy technique (that goes for the whole trio, particularly the drummer, Ricki M. something or other—it was actually 'his' trio) that bordered on wailing like that sometimes, but was for the most part pretty incredible. I wouldn't want to play like that, but it was quite a night. |

the only fast player I had time for was Bucket Head but even he started to become a bit..you know wanky.. I prefer my guitar players on the other end of the spectrum..slooower the better..like Justin Broderick off Godflesh |

i liked this one song with the sequincer i think vai is such a conceited bastard, i've got this one album which i liked but had all these pictures of him in it even worse was a booklet i saw once from ingwy mamsteen where he poses with his ferrari, but he makes (made) really stupid music |

Yngwie Malmsteen?? sheesh that brings back memories..horrid ones..there was this whole culture who's the fastest guitarist and competitions clocking them..ugh...rock was headed to a very scary place until Grunge happened in early nineties |

we actually had to do a song of him for guitar lessons, which brings me to my first succesfull picture upload, do have to edit a bit though |

well maybe it's just fine |

while metheny can rip up a fret board, he also has quite a nice touch for the softer ones, like "the road to you" "letter from home" and the one i am listening to now, off the new album, "another life." the guy is a genius... joey |
