I just saw him a few months ago, one of the best shows I've ever seen. And I'm going to see him next month. He's really pretty old, 43 to be exact. I think he's certainly one of the greatest of his time and has put out some of the best guitar work of the last 20 years. Him and Derek Trucks are my favorite newer guitarists. As much as I love him, I admit some of his work is too robotic and void of emotion for me. But he's capable of covering all ends of the spectrum. He can do the extremely technical, he can cover so many genres, he can do some very unique experimental stuff, some real heavy stuff and he can play some very beautiful melodic stuff. I can't wait to see him next month.

This off one of my favorite albums,"Decoding the Tomb of Bansheebot". I love how he goes from very melodic and pretty to some heaviness and then back to the pretty stuff. Such a bad ass.
