OK OK, did you listen to any of those videos? They all sound like shit. The truth is a comedian did an excellent dubbing job (the best I have seen ever) and made them all look . . . well judge for yourself) The guy must be a guitarist himself because the different noises he adds line up perfectly with the motions they are doing. In the case of Yngwie he has the choir and orchestra even sounding like shit. The Eirc Clapton one is classic with the keyboard, drums and sax making their noises.

Its one thing to have somene like Yngwie "barf" scales (thats all he seems to do anyway) but the playing is atrocious. Did you really think these guys were playing that bad. Watch them again. They are classic.

Whats really funny is when the guy adds a little hint of a tune in their like they are some oerson just learning and sounding like shit. He has Eddie playing Ironman, Eric playing Enter the Sandman, they videos gave me a good laugh. They are meant as a joke.



On a serious note this is one of my favorite guitarists ever. The news was so sad to me. I can only image where he would have taken his guitar playing. When I first heard him back in the late 80s I would have never thought this would be his fate.




The guy Elliot Fisk (classical guitarist) plays paganini better than anyone Ive heard.



What is interesting here is Paco is keeping up with Al and John picking classically while the other two are flat alternate picking.



Steve Morse another great
