zigzag Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I say Roy does it better mainly because he did it first. Gary can definitely shred. Roy is the standard, the champ, and Gary is the contender. Plus, I find it difficult watching Gary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Okay... laugh at an old man if you will, but... Poet and "critic" T.S. Eliot wrote that poetry best is written on reflection of the emotion, not in the heat of it. The same goes pretty much with music, as far as I'm concerned. Buchanan has emotion in his playing but with a degree of understatement I consider is indicative of a greater degree of "maturity" in playing that is not a matter of technique one can learn, but rather must learn to feel, if not understand. Most older blues pickers, take BB as an example, are singin' of loves lost at some earlier time and how they remember the rotten feeling - where younger pickers too often will get the immediate response of "OMG, MY GIRLFRIEND LEFT ME!" I think that's why a lot of "teen" music over the decades has been kinda lost to history because as those who heard it as teens grow up, they stick with the more mature stuff of their youth and the "weep, wail and gnash teeth" stuff is forgotten. What's that about Link Wray and "Rumble?" Yeah, it's an angry rock piece - but without the overt tears or bruises. More a statement of "Ewscray Ouyay." Oh, and frankly I do think a 16-18 year old can do the more "mature" stuff too, if they stop to think a bit. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
