Finally. I thought I was going to kill myself. But not ESP, it's too speedy even for me :-)

Not even Kreisberg can make the head sound meaningful. All right on the solo though. Ish.

Yea Christian did you really mean the tune is not that different from GASB changes or harmony. In it's self or actual playing of tune.... I have to disagree.... I guess I could reduce the harmony to what.... vanilla root motion.

I just think it's part of expanding function and what function is working with.... I think there are reasons why most don't play ESP or many of WS tunes.... they're just difficult.

That video I posted was from 12 years ago.... not really worked out etc... but not really CT's and melody embellishment. It was fairly vanilla... but not really GASB style. And WS's improve... that's still another level on another level LOL.

The Kreisberg vid... is cool, I liked it... but it's a mix of in and out etc... not that great of a feel. maybe more of a worked out thing... It's only a couple minutes... so who know where it might go. In general I love his playing though. Might be more of tough tune...LOL
