if those are 3 AXE FX in that rack behind him then no one can compete

By being Guthrie Govan
>>
>>71034720
he's a great virtuoso but a forgettable composer/musician
a couple of fripp's notes on classic albums is greater than guthrie's whole body of work

>>71033218
Belew and Levin were crucial parts of the later KC sound but it's still nothing without Fripp

No shit, that's why he's mainly a guitar teacher and hired gun
>>
>>71034774
Fripp is just as forgettable, let's be honest.

I'm a King Crimson fan and what not, and I don't understand the hype about him. Great player technically, obviously knows a loy about music, but he lacks a certain punch, a certain human quality to his playing that would truly make him distinct.

All I'm going to say is - Heroes, I'll Come Running, Starless.

Not to mention Frippertronics, which sound like the birth of planets. No certain punch...

What? Would you call satch a soulless wanker too? Guthrie may not be the arranger that fripp is, but his ear for melody is top fucking notch.
>>
>>71036754

Not the guy you're talking to but I'd put Satch with Buckethead, Steve Vai, and Paul Gilbert in the "technical virtuoso with no soul" category.

I was listening to a live version of LTIA part 1 and holy shit how can one man alternate pick so fast. Lots of shredders can hide behind distortion but Fripp did it mostly clean, totally nuts dude.

>>71037302

See the problem is that for every Interworld and Soothsayer there are literally hundreds of "watch me play this scale at 200 bpm" tracks in Buckethead's discography. To the point that I don't believe the "soul" in his slower and more emotive songs.
>>
>>71037352
That's a retarded conclusion famm. Buckethead comes just as much from the Eddie Hazel and William Ackerman school of guitar as he does from the Paul Gilbert style. He's just all over the place and releases way too many tracks, doesn't take away from his innate abilities as a musician.

He really reminds me of a more accomplished Eddie Hazel, there's a reason he collaborated with so many of the P-Funk guys early on in his career.
>>
>>71036754
>Would you call satch a soulless wanker too?
why would I? Satriani and Govan are like the opposites, why would you bring up his name in the first place
>but his ear for melody is top fucking notch.
strongly disagree
>>
>>71037423

It just gets annoying to hear the same progression in so many of his solos. He has this one specific pattern that shows up almost every single time he plays a fast solo that really makes it feel like he's approaching music in a paint-by-numbers kind of way.

Don't get me wrong. Colma, Population Override, Electric Tears, his work with Praxis and Axiom Funk, great stuff. But keep an ear open on his faster stuff and it all starts to sound really samey really fast. Turns me off.
