Guthrie is fucking awesome, IMO. One of my favorites easily, and yes he rules on Steven Wilson's new album.



About him being a bit of a snob, I could see it, but he seems pretty nice. He just really stress' theory and will play something that seems very musical, and will go, "okay there's some vaguely musical there". Idk, he's just too serious about theory IMO. That being said his music still breathes and flows and seems human, so for that he's a genius.

But dude, Uncle Skunk and Slidey Thing are amazing songs to bone to.



This also has the best lead guitar tone I've ever heard on record. Damn.

Check out guys like Andy Timmons, Marco Sfogli and Vinnie Moore. Govan rules but he's become the Metallica of instrumental guitar on Sput.

Dude I know my guitar players. Guthrie is an improvisational genius, nobody I've seen holds a candle to him in that regard.

I've never seen or heard anything by Guthrie that puts him at such a level, to be honest. If you know something specific off the top of your head then link me.

My dad used to play Ah Via Musicom every day in the car on the way to pre-school. And we just saw him live in November where he killed it.
