My guitar teacher back in the 80s was your hair and shredder Steve Vai, Malamstein, type of player.

Had a formal music education, MS.

Asks me what i liked, Floyd was one of the answers. He says we can start with that, it’s simple enough to stuff.

So next week he shows up with Comfortably Numb and says “I never realized how difficult Gilmore stuff really is. The basics are easy but there is so much little nuanced stuff going on to do it his way is extremely difficult. Took me all week to figure this out and i’m still not all the way there”
