I saw him a couple of years ago and didn't stay for the encore. He tends to play 20 notes where 1 will do. I found him technically brilliant but lacked heart and soul in his playing. It’s the free form rock/ jazz style playing that you mentioned earlier, melv. It’s just not my scene either.  There was a lot of it about during the ‘ psychedelic ‘ period. Some truly gifted but totally self indulgent guitar playing. Far removed from the Hank Marvin I grew up on !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
