"The problem with EC's playing from my perspective is I always seem to know which note comes next which for me makes him boring."

mijostyn-

I believe your intuition is reinforcing music harmony theory /science-why a  certain note just sounds "right" to our hearing.  Science and subjectivity that always gives me "wow" moments when I read the subject.

Eric's solo's  often does follow specific  scales/patterns any good guitarist has in his solo arsenal. How one puts it all together in any setting is the tough part.

RC played the sweet Tele slide guitar for the soundtrack of the movie “Crossroads” in opposition to Stevie Vai’s demonic metal shredding in the final shoot-out between Ralph Macchio and Vai to reclaim the soul of his friend.

You’re right that Ry played on the soundtrack, but IIRC, Ralph dug back into his classical guitar training to come up with something the Devil’s guy couldn’t best.

Clapton critics should remember that there are classical guitarists who can play rings around their guitar heroes. It’s all a matter of taste and Clapton plays with taste, IMHO.

It bring tear to my eye to hear such good example of why so many buy cheap watch and drive old car. I never understand why guy no work harder and try get ahead but it make sense some want nothing good.I think maybe that what make world go in circle. That thing moving like 25,000 mile per hour so move out the way I coming through.

More like 25000 mile/day.

But that just give more time for people to move outta da way.
