For me the guitarist has to tell a story, he/she has to have something to say... Not just play notes...
AND it's not just playing all the right notes in a song, it's how you get to that chord/note... The path you take...
I have MUCHO respect for someone like Satriani but for me, he is just playing and not talking to me...
RObert Cray, Johnny Lang, Jimi, SRV, and many others talk to me when they play...
Again, I have MUCHO respect for someone that can play like Satriani... I have tried to play and I SUCK...
Johnny Lang talks to me, but that is just me... Take all of this with a grain of salt:
